Majenta started her season with a win at the Curragh last month and bids for more glory in the Vaughanshoes.ie European Breeders Fund Fillies Handicap in Ballinrobe on Tuesday evening.
Kevin Prendergast 's five-year-old popped up at 14-1 when staying on well to win by a length over a mile and a half in Headquarters. She has an extra furlong and a 4lb rise in the weights to negotiate but they look within her compass.
Those with form in the opening Irish Farmers Journal Median Auction Maiden look opposable and it could pay to side with Mick Halford's Fast Company gelding Lehbab who should relish the forecast good ground on debut.
Brendan Duke 's Uno Voce picked up a winning thread in Leopardstown and has prospects of continuing it in the Vaughanshoes.ie Jennings Meats Handicap. Prendergast's Mighty Fine showed improved form when fourth on quick ground at Navan and is a significant threat. Equation Of Time s mark has plummeted and he could be ready to exploit that in the Vaughanshoes.ie Kateappleby Apprentice Handicap. He was fourth in Leopardstown when dropped to a rating of 65 and gets in off 64 here.
Aidan O'Brien 's Sherlock Holmes looks strong in the one-mile-five-furlong maiden. This Galileo colt ran a promising race when a close fifth at the Curragh on his first start. Tidal Star made late progress to take third at Gowran Park and appeals off bottom weight in the Vaughanshoes.ie Ecco Handicap.
Tony Martin appears to have found a good opportunity for Cillian's Return in the Vaughanshoes.ie Ballinrobe Claremorris Castlebar Maiden. He was beaten by a nose in a Gowran maiden over a mile but should appreciate this mile-and-five trip, having won his bumper and maiden hurdle over two miles.
