FormscanBy Gary Carson - IL PELLEGRINO may be capable of a bit better on his second outing in handicap company. The No Nay Never colt reportedly got upset in the stalls before finishing fifth at Leopardstown last month. He had beaten one of today's rivals, Monasterboice, in a Limerick maiden previously and that rival has won twice since. Il Pellegrino gets weight from Noel Meade's runner now. Monasterboice won his maiden over course and distance and should be a big player again. Top-weight Democracy is tried in cheekpieces now and is another to add to the shortlist, as he has been knocking on the door recently.

Quotes on Democracy (IRE)
You’d have to be very happy with that on very deep ground. He travelled very well and, when Wayne dropped him down to go, he was a little bit lost on that ground but he would never have seen that ground before. It was a good education for him. He has plenty of speed and I’d say he’s a classy horse. He’s big and he’s strong and very laid-back. There is a Listed race (First Flier) back here in a few weeks and we could look at that.After Democracy (IRE) finished 1st at Curragh on Sun, 16th Apr 2023 6f Flat Maiden Heavy

Quotes on Four Blondes (IRE)
It was lovely to get a maiden with her, she's a filly that had good form last year at the Curragh. She finished fifth at the Curragh last time, Shane had ridden her work and was fairly confident with her. She had come on a good bit from the Curragh. You'd imagine that Curragh form was going to stand to her today as this mightn't have been the strongest of maidens. Aidan's came out and Joseph's came out so you could understand why she shortened in price. She deserved that on last year's form. She's by Gleneagles and wouldn't mind a little bit more ease in the ground. She's out of a six-time winning Exceed And Excel mare but seven furlongs to a mile would be fine. She can be a little bit saucy and has a little bit of a funny head carriage but she could be progressive. She came out of the breeze-ups here last year and it's brilliant for John (Bowden) to get a winner, she's a grand filly to have. She has a nice pedigree and to win a maiden with her will help.After Four Blondes (IRE) finished 1st at Fairyhouse on Wed, 10th Jul 2024 7f Flat Maiden Good

Quotes on Artful Approach (IRE)
I thought he was well handicapped because he just hadn't got his act together in his races to this point. I thought if he could get it together today he would be competitive so it's great. He was drawn 21 in Fairyhouse and was four wide the whole way. He learned something the last day and the handicapper left him alone, thankfully, which put him in a position to win today. Hopefully this guy might reappear at the weekend.After Artful Approach (IRE) finished 1st at Galway on Mon, 29th Jul 2024 7f Flat Hcap Yielding
