Henri Matisse⁵⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-8| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien| C

5/6

Promising individual. 8/1, won 5-runner Railway Stakes at this course (6f, good) 55 days ago by ½ length from The Strikin Viking, despite being slowly away. Outstanding claims for top yard with likelihood of more to come.

Form: 11

Hotazhell³⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: S Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 107| CD

2/1

C&D maiden winner took step up class in his stride when winning Group 3 5-runner Tyros Stakes at Leopardstown (7.3f, good to soft) 30 days ago by 1½ lengths from Swagman, responding well. May well do better.

Form: 411

Rock Of Cashel²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: W M Lordan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 80| D

13/2

Different proposition on second start when winning 8-runner maiden at Galway (7f, good to soft, 3/1) 26 days ago, driven clear. Should progress again but he needs to in this company.

Form: 81

Scorthy Champ⁹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: D McMonagle| T: J P O'Brien| D

17/2

Created a very favourable impression when landing 10-runner maiden at Leopardstown (7.2f, good, 7/1) on debut 99 days ago, pushed out. Open to plenty of improvement so sure to leave bare form behind.

Form: 1

Forecasts

Henri Matisse (5/6), Hotazhell (2/1), Rock Of Cashel (13/2), Scorthy Champ (17/2)

A quartet to view positively with HENRI MATISSE just about the percentage call even under a penalty given he already has winning form at this level to his name gained in a 6f contest at this track. Hotazhell is second choice on form.
