Sixth foal; half-sister to four winners inc Al Boum Photo (top-class 2m-3m2f hurdle/chase inc two Gold Cups) and Al Inea (French 2m3f-3m2f chase inc cross-country); unraced dam out of half-sister to Scottish National winner Al Co; top class jumps pedigree being a half-sister to dual Gold Cup winner Al Boum Photo; tough enough ask on debut but very likely to be thereabouts.
Came from a good bit back to finish an eye-catching fourth in a bumper here in July; did not kick on from that at Wexford a month later; can go well if she can find a little bit of improvement.
Second foal; half-sister to bumper winner Metkayina; dam bumper/2m4f-2m6f hurdle winner, half-sister to two point winners, from family of useful bumper winner and 2m1f-3m hurdle/chase winner Openide; stoutly-bred newcomer and likely to improve for time and distance.
Seventh foal; closely related to useful winners Bold Plan (2m3f-2m5f hurdle/chase) and I A Connect (bumper and 2m/2m1f hurdle/chase); dam maiden hurdler; Hillstar filly with a very good jumping pedigree; market could be a good guide.
Sixth foal; half-sister to AQPS Flat/Listed-placed 2m1f-2m7f hurdle/chase winner El Martel and to three other AQPS Flat winners; dam unraced, out of AQPS Flat winner; cost 100,000euros as a three-year-old and one of the more interesting newcomers.
Half-sister to four Flat winners inc Open Wide (5f-6f inc 2yo/AW; RPR 104), Katimavik (7f-1m; 90) and Fast Skarmish (Polish 6f 2yo/1m1f); dam unraced half-sister to 1m4f Gr 2 winner Irresistible Jewel; very much a Flat pedigree and was bought unraced from the Coles for 6,500GBP last year; best watched.
Did some reasonable late work when third in a bumper at Ballinrobe last month; likely to improve for that but this looks a stronger contest and she will need to find plenty.
Second foal; dam French Listed-placed 2m-2m2f hurdle winner, sister to French 2m3f-2m4f hurdle/chase winner Pretender Alana, half-sister to bumper/2m6f hurdle winner Invictus World; stoutly-bred newcomer but from a yard that can have one ready first time; worth a market watch.
Fourth foal; half-sister to winners Jamessaintpatrick (point/2m5f hurdle) and Our Surprise (point/2m2f hurdle); dam unraced half-sister to 2m4f hurdle winner It's Got Legs, out of sister to dam of high-class jumper Geos; stable has sustained good form for most of the year but this one probably best watched on debut.
Third foal; half-sister to bumper/2m hurdle winner Shelikesthelights; dam 2m-2m5f chase winner, sister to high-class 2m-2m4f hurdle/chase winner Midnight Shadow; from a good family and potentially a nice newcomer but likely to improve for this.
Nice introduction when clear runner-up to a potentially smart type in a Ballinrobe bumper in August; likely to improve for that and could well take some beating.
