Tarziyna’s time has come

John Oxx’s Tarziyna has to be the choice to land the nap in the Irish Stallion Farms’ EBF Maiden at Sligo tonight.

Unraced as a juvenile, the daughter of Raven’s Pass has produced two promising efforts this season and should now be ready to make it third time lucky.

She began over a mile and a half at Cork last month, finding some trouble in running up the straight, before finishing fourth to Aidan O’Brien’s Just Gorgeous. There was nothing earth shattering about that, but the selection did build on the display when dropped down to ten furlongs at the Curragh nine days ago.
