7yo Gelding by Chevalier – An Bonnan Bui (Riverhead)

6yo Mare by Stowaway – One Song (Bob Back)

Winner of his debut at Borris in December and finished third in his first attempt at winners level at Tyrella on Saturday.
7yo Mare by Zagreb – Sideways Sonia (Derrylin)
Improving sort who has shown notable progression with each start. On only her third outing she was a close up third at Tyrella last Saturday she is sure to be a winner shortly.
6 yo Gelding by Definite Article – Wilmotts Fancy (Buckley)
Winner on his debut outing at Tyrella last Saturday and looks an exciting sort. Out of a three times winning mare who has already bred two track winners.
6yo Gelding by Gamut – Mageney (Bravefoot)
Third on his debut at Tyrella on Saturday and out of a Point-to-Point winning mare so plenty to look forward to.

6yo Gelding by Flemensfirth – Beglaccord (Accordion)
Fine type who was fifth and third on his last two starts and continues to go in the right direction. Closely related to Master Of The Chase and Badgerlaw, he looks an ideal type to step up and win his maiden very soon.

Stepped up on some promising previous runs to win at Tallow on Sunday. He has enough experience to now make the grade in winners company.
