Form & Verdict
Interrupted campaign this year but fairly useful form when beaten a head in Killarney maiden over the summer and on last month's return to action when chasing home an all-the-way winner here over 7f, having raced keenly; major player in what looks a weak maiden.

Two-time AW winner; yet to score on turf but hasn't run badly at times; posted an underwhelming effort at Leopardstown (1m, good) last time returning from a break when 6.5l behind the winner Frank Pickle; needs to improve.

Le Havre filly cost 150,000euros as a yearling; first foal; dam French 7.5f 2yo/10.5f Listed winner, closely related to useful French 7f winner Markhor; easy enough to back but shaped with some promise on recent Galway maiden, slow to break and green, only getting the hang of things late on when staying on fourth over 7f; extra furlong seems sure to suit and won't have to improve too much to take this.

Very lightly-raced 4yo filly enters handicaps after three maiden runs over much shorter trips; potential improver, market may guide.

Betting Forcast

11/8 Ocean Manifest, 50/1 Boomtown Lad, 9/2 Land Of The Giants, 50/1 Lilys Magic, 16/1 Marambo, 40/1 Tullyesker, 50/1 Without Love, 50/1 Knockmark Angel, 50/1 Celtic Priestess, 6/4 Seola, 12/1 Spirit Of Indalo

Verdict

A weak maiden with little strength in depth. Ocean Manifest sets the standard but there could be more improvement in SEOLA (nap), plenty green on her recent Galway maiden but finishing out her race well and this extra furlong seems sure to suit. Land Of The Giants looks next best on his juvenile form. [Alan Hewison]
