Leopardstown

TomorrowMay 11, 2025Flat7f

Dermot Weld saddled a winning newcomer in the silks of the late Aga Khan recently and ESHERANN, who ticks plenty of the right boxes on paper, could be another. He will be particularly interesting if the market speaks in his favour. Valencia chased home a subsequent Group 3 winner when runner-up here last July but appeared to find 7f too sharp on her latest start and an entry in the Irish Oaks adds weight to the theory that a stiffer is needed. Knockmark is third choice ahead of Monkstown.

    Poet's Word gelding. Dam, 11f/1½m winner who barely stayed 2m, also won over hurdles. Entitled to come on for the run.

    Verdict
    Decorated Knight gelding. Half-brother to several winners, including 5f-1m winner Spirit of Big Bang and 7f/1m winner Keeper's Choice. Dam, 1m-1¼m winner, also won in bumpers. Doesn't have the look of a first-time-out winner on paper.

    Verdict
    Wootton Bassett colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including winner up to 1m Erzindjan and 1m/8.2f winner Eshiya, both useful. Makes plenty of appeal on paper and interesting to see how he shapes up in the betting.

    Promising sort. 7/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, fourth of 13 in maiden at Dundalk (7f) 37 days ago, faring best of those held up. Trainer going well. Should progress.

    Verdict
    Twice-raced colt. Evens, third of 7 in maiden at Dundalk (8f) 30 days ago. Looked rather ungenuine on that occasion and he's probably worth taking on.

    Verdict
    €20,000 2-y-o, Game Winner gelding. Closely related to 6f winner Peace Peddler and half-brother to 3 winners, including 2-y-o 6f winner Embur's Zip, all in US. Worth a second look in the betting.

    Verdict
    Thrice-raced filly. 9/1, fourth of 14 in minor event at the Curragh (7f, good to soft) on final 2-y-o start. Didn't appear to be ideally suited by the drop to this trip on that occasion but perhaps more use will be made of her this time.
