Curragh Race 2 - AES Recycling First Flier Stakes (Listed)
NEW YORKER (2) made the perfect start when landing a 1005m Dundalk maiden as favourite three and a half weeks ago. May only improve from that experience and keep the winning streak going. Leading contender. STAR PROSPECT (3) also struck when debuting tackling track and trip two weeks ago and looks open to further progress. Represents the main danger. WHAT A GIRL WANTS (7) showed plenty when placed here first-up beaten 1.3L. Might be right in the finish with natural improvement. Cannot be discounted. VELOZEE (6) won narrowly on debut at Cork in early April and has the profile to measure up again.
