Ger Lyons will be hoping One Last Look can make the most of having her sights lowered at the Curragh this evening.
Following an impressive debut victory over subsequent winner One Voice on her racecourse debut at Leopardstown in June, the daughter of Fastnet Rock returned for the Foxrock track for last month’s Group Three Silver Flash Stakes.
She came up a little short — finishing fifth behind Aidan O’Brien’s impressive all-the-way winner Love — but has less on her plate in the Loder Irish EBF Fillies Race and is likely to take plenty of beating, despite having to concede weight all round.
The obvious danger on form is Johnny Murtagh’s Know It All who caught the eye when fourth on her on her introduction over this course and distance three weeks ago.
Jessica Harrington has been firing on all cylinders with her juvenile string this season and must have every chance of adding to her tally with Recall The Show in the opening Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden.
Fifth on his first start at Roscommon, the Showcasing colt progressed to be beaten just a short-head by Royal County Down on his second start at Down Royal — form which received a significant boost when the winner followed up in a Galway nursery last week.
The Ted Walsh-trained Castletownshend will not be winning out of turn if he can strike gold in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden.
The four-year-old very nearly made a winning debut when going down by a head at Naas in October 2017, since which he has been placed on a further three occasions.
He was beaten a short-head on his most recent visit to Naas and while he is no world-beater, he has enough about him to land a race of this nature. Powersville has won two of her last three starts for Tom Mullins and is out to add to her tally in the TRM Equine Nutrition Handicap.
She faces two other last-time-out winners in Charles O’Brien’s Face Off and Bahlwan from Denis Hogan’s yard, while Willie McCreery’s course and distance scorer Sweetest Taboo is another to consider in a competitive affair. St Brelades Bay and Aussie Valentine are among the familiar names on show in the concluding Curragh Supporting Kildare GAA Handicap.
