13:00 Ebeko @ 4/1
An interesting auction maiden on paper with most of these making their debut.
Without the benefit of a market for a guide, it’s safe to assume Paddy Twomey’s EBEKO will be ready to rock while Helvic Princess and Alive Kitty represent top connections as well.
13:30 Abeona
With the way Johnny Murtagh’s team are running, Laggata deserves respect but ABEONA could be worth another chance reverting to this trip.
Baraniya is interesting on her return while Rocket Science should be involved as well.
14:00 Frank Arthur
This looks a good opportunity for FRANK ARTHUR to get off the mark at the third attempt while Moore Street Wise is feared on debut.
14:30 Goodwood Showman @ 12/1
Walkabout blew away the cobwebs at Fairyhouse last week and is expected to improve while Overheer is unexposed but at the likely prices GOODWOOD SHOWMAN looks the play.
He is handicapped to win races and can have a major say.
15:00 Wilderness
WILDERNESS will be hard to stop turning out quickly under the penalty after an easy win at Gowran Park. Crackaway is interesting on debut for Gordon Elliott and can chase her home. Clifftop and Lady Of Luxury are somewhat interesting as well.
15:30 Divine Celt
The obvious starting place in a race with little worthwhile form to go on is the dead consistent Dazzling Darren, who went close to completing the four-timer over C&D last week. He is up 5lb for that, but looks sure to go close. However, DIVINE CELT might prove a bit of value, given how well she finished over 1m at Gowran last week and that she is bred to relish a longer trip.
Jan Wellens wasn’t far behind the selection last time and is of interest if he gets in. Complete Fantasy, Little Brother and Shadow Wind are also respected.
16:00 Bigbadandbeautiful
Several of these are capable of winning an average country maiden including Cafe Con Leche, Midnight Sunshine and Noble Music but classy bumper mare BIGBADANDBEAUTIFUL (NAP) could well be too good for them.
She raced a bit too keenly last time at Leopardstown and shapes as if she will have the speed to cope with this trip.
