5 (1)	Glory To Be Chestnut J:Dylan Browne McMonagle T:M C Grassick	J:Dylan Browne McMonagle T:M C Grassick	129	b	42324	68	84	76	3d	—	—	-34	31	0.10/1	2/5 71%
Solid form in 6f maidens, rated 68, drop to 5f should suit, leading chance; blinkers
1 (3)	Arklow Lad Bay J:Declan McDonogh T:Kieran P Cotter	J:Declan McDonogh T:Kieran P Cotter	134	t	862	69	76	58	26d	—	—	-3	15	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Improved efforts last twice, rated 69 and should be thereabouts, soft would be a query
4 (6)	Be Good Or Begone Chestnut J:Shane Foley T:Daniel James Murphy	J:Shane Foley T:Daniel James Murphy	129	—	—	-	50	33	39d	—	—	-4	1.7	3.50/1	14/1 7%
16-1 and no impact on Curragh debut (leaned right), big improvement needed
3 (7)	Snowballs Bay J:Nathan Crosse T:W McCreery	J:Nathan Crosse T:W McCreery	134	—	05	-	72	32	26d	—	0W/0P 1 run	-4	1.7	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Not far behind Arklow Lad at Down Royal latest, in the mix again today
8 (8)	Star Allure Bay J:Rory Cleary T:Ms Claire O'Connell	J:Rory Cleary T:Ms Claire O'Connell	129	b	-89454	34	60	39	56d	—	—	-3	1	8.25/1	33/1 3%
0-10 and rated 34, not a bad handicap run latest but hard to fancy in maiden company
6 (2)	Miss Travers Bay J:Gary Carroll T:Joseph G Murphy	J:Gary Carroll T:Joseph G Murphy	129	—	3-0	-	74	50	26d	—	—	-1	3.1	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Well behind Arklow Lad and Snowballs at Down Royal, may improve but needs to
7 (4)	She's A Gift Bay J:Chris Hayes T:John C McConnell	J:Chris Hayes T:John C McConnell	129	—	0790	-	45	22	9d	—	—	-1	0.4	31.25/1	125/1 1%
Looks an unlikely winner on the evidence of four previous runs, hard to fancy

Heavy defeats both starts at long odds over further, seems safe to rule out
