Beaten over 10 lengths on both outings at 1m; Irish Oaks entry looks lofty but trip should help. |

Zarak filly is a first foal out of a 1m2f winner; lack of experience told when beaten 10.5l at 14-1 on debut at Cork (1m, yielding), 1l behind I Hope You Dance; should know more now and open to improvement. |

Homebred nursery winner over 7f on heavy ground and staying-on sixth over 1m (soft) in higher-grade Curragh contest on recent return to action; dam won over 1m and he should stay, but easy ground is said to be important to him. |

Her Irish Oaks entry is unrealistic on what she's shown in her first two races; handicaps will be more like it. |

Half-sister to winners Teutates (Group-placed 1m/1m2f inc AW; RPR 112) and Warmonger (multiple 2m inc AW; 95); dam 1m4f AW winner (77); 12-1 for debut at the Curragh (7f, good) last August and failed to beat a rival home; holds some fancy entries so clearly thought capable of better but McMonagle prefers Nellcote. |

24th May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 0y |

Retains her existing mark after a Roscommon maiden win gained on her tenth outing; 7lb out of the handicap, that disadvantage somewhat offset by the rider's useful claim; vulnerable on overall form. |

1st 7 (3) |
8th May 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 1f 133y |

0-9 on turf; placed twice last year, in a Roscommon maiden (7.5f, yielding) and a Sligo handicap off 68 (6f, gd-yld); yet to race at beyond a mile; beaten 5l off 67 in Limerick handicap latest; cheekpieces need to eke out more. |

Minor promise in maidens last year; beaten 9l on handicap debut and seasonal return at Cork (1m, sft-hvy) last month; sharper now and better ground here could suit. |

9st 3lb |
Best effort in maidens came on her third start at Dundalk (6f) in August; non-runner on account of yielding to soft ground at Naas in September so may need the track to dry out to make an impact on her handicap debut. |

Never better than midfield on Tipperary debut last August, showing up more prominently on last month's Naas return before fading; may be more one for a handicap. |

9st 2lb |
Modest form in maidens and similar story on handicap debut at Naas last September (1m, soft) when an 11l sixth of 16; met trouble in running when clipping heels and unseating on return at Limerick eight days ago; yard in form and too early to write off. |

Not a threat in three maidens; beaten 11l on handicap debut at Naas when last seen in September (1m, yielding to soft) but did receive a bump at a cruicial stage; down 3lb and could yet improve. |

0-10; best form on soft and heavy ground; ran well in C&D claimer last month (soft) and again in a Bellewstown handicap (1m, soft) on penultimate but poor on quicker ground at Ballinrobe latest; rain would boost chance. |
8/1 |

8th May 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 1f 133y |

Good fourth on handicap debut at Gowran last October (7f, heavy); kept on from the back for a 5.75l third of 13 at Bellewstown (1m, soft) latest; previously ran well in 1m Gowran claimer; worth another go at this sort of trip on the evidence of that effort; rain a plus. |

Betting Forcast
6/1 Almeiyda, 16/1 Two And Two, 8/1 Down The Glen, 25/1 Jps Express, 12/1 Themis, 12/1 Cosmic Funk, 12/1 Glamazon, 14/1 Love Orchid, 13/2 Nicky Larson, 12/1 Bear Right, 5/1 Chirac, 25/1 De Songbird, 14/1 No More Hiding, 15/2 Wicklow Gap, 20/1 Cameclose, 25/1 Only One Scobie, 9/1 Balance Of Trade
Verdict
A ready winner when upped in trip at Gowran, CHIRAC doesn’t appear over-burdened by a 7lb rise and there must be a good chance of him getting this extra furlong. Nicky Larson, Almeiyda and Wicklow Gap look likely dangers, while bottom-weight Balance Of Trade caught the eye at Gowran on Monday and can go well. [Alan Hewison]
