FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Following two promising opening runs at Leopardstown, PROXIMA CENTAURI can gain a first career win. Short of room at a crucial stage before finishing well for fifth on her debut in July, the Jessica Harrington-trained filly went two places better next time. The form of that latter race was boosted subsequently when the winner followed up in a Listed contest on Champions Weekend. The 80-rated Varner will find this easier having been highly tried of late. Well beaten in a Group 3 race last time, the daughter of Elzaam should find her level. Down Royal runner-up Reponse Finale stepped up considerably on her first start when only narrowly losing out. Granted further improvement, the Kevin Prendergast-trained filly should go close.
For two years old fillies only, maidens at starting that are EBF eligible and whose sire established one or more yearling sales in the relevant year with a median price of not more than #30,000Weights - 9st 3lbs
