Ballinrobe Race 3 - SIS, Supporting Irish Racing Maiden
MANO CHICAGO (3) raced consistently with three placed efforts in five attempts before finishing a below par fifth contesting a Cork handicap a fortnight ago. Wears first-time blinkers to bounce back. NAVINSKY (4) lost out by a neck finishing runner-up in a Navan maiden two starts ago. Unable to follow up producing a disappointing effort in a 1600m Curragh maiden. Wears first-time cheekpieces to offer improvement. WILD SAPPHIRE (7) finished runner-up tackling a Dundalk AW maiden on penultimate outing. Also failed subsequently when fifth at Gowran Park. Will be thereabouts. NORTH OCEAN (5) cannot be discounted providing first run since November 2024.

Returns from a 42-day let-up. Most recently second last of 12 at Dundalk All Weather on March 27 over 1609m, 20 len behind Gaiety Girl with 56kg at $301. The race before that raced on the pace before fading 10th of 12 at Dundalk All Weather on February 27 over 1207m, 15 len behind Oxford Circus with 62kg at $201. Can't see her breaking through for the maiden win this time.
