Follow Mount Colah
He won an ordinary maiden hurdle at Down Royal last month and then made the step up in class in good style at Sligo. The selection led for most of the trip and found plenty in the closing stages to beat subsequent winner Audrelles Lad by a length and three parts.
It is quite possible that by the time the contest is run the ground will have turned soft again, but the beauty of being with Mount Colah is that all surfaces appear to come the same to him.
Michael Halford’s Regulation gets a hopeful nod in the richly endowed Topaz Mile EBF Handicap.
A three-year-old with plenty of scope, the best is surely yet to come. He handled testing conditions really well when taking a modest maiden at the Curragh and was far from disgraced when moving into a different league at Killarney.
Regulation finished third behind Croi An Or and Learn, successful in the meantime, and is capable of a big run.
There is plenty of positive word regarding Dermot Weld’s newcomer big Break, a sister to Famous Name, in the Caulfieldindustrial.com EBF Fillies Maiden and she will obviously be hard to beat.
Preference, however, is for Aidan O’Brien’s Magical Dream, who was slowly away and as green as grass when third on her debut behind easy winner, Viztoria at Naas.
Jim Bolger’s Mona Brown, beaten by Wonderful at Killarney, gets the nod in the Caulfieldindustrial.com EBF Maiden.
