FormscanBy Alan Magee - TAZARAL was easy to back when finishing in mid-division on debut in a decent Leopardstown maiden won by Southern Lights back in April. The half-brother to Breeders Cup winner Tarnawa can be expected to progress from that run and it’s interesting that Colin Keane is booked on the gelding instead of Offiah, who again showed promise when runner-up to Exuma at Limerick on Saturday. Irish Chief is the obvious threat. The son of War Front shaped well in six-furlong maidens at the Curragh last year including when third to Teresa Mendoza and can be expected to progress from his reappearance at Listowel where soft ground may not have been suitable. This represents a significant step up in trip.
For three years old and upwards, maidens at starting Weights - 3-y-o 9st 7lbs; 4-y-o and up 10st 5lbs; Fillies allowed 5lbs;
