Curragh Race 1 - Market Square Monasterevin Irish European Breeders Fund Mdn
CONTROLLA (5) can make it fifth time lucky here with her sights lowered considerably. Found G1 company far too hot latest with the pick of her efforts an excellent neck second in a Naas G3 (1200m) on debut in May. Obvious claims. JUNGLE WISE (5) found only a well-touted Ballydoyle inmate too good on opening run when a 5.5L second at Cork (1000m) 17 days ago. Capable of a big performance. BENOWN (2) ran well to finish second beaten 1.5L in a 1400m contest here last month. Belied long odds that day and interesting eased back a furlong. HERALDS MARCH (7) started with a midfield effort in similar company last time. Likely to progress.

Jumped at long odds at debut, 2nd of 11 at this track on August 9 over 1408m, 1.5 len behind Shakespeare carrying 60.5kg at $34. Should come on following that experience and looks a great chance to break through.

Raced two times to date. At very long odds at debut, 16th of 19 at this track on August 9 over 1207m, 11 len behind Push The Boat Out carrying 58kg at $151. Second-up 19th of 21 at Naas on September 17 over 1207m, 23 len behind Luca Brillante with 58kg at $151. Doubt she'll threaten many here.

Second-up. First-up after three months ran last in a small field in the G1 Moyglare Stud Stakes at this track on September 13 over 1408m, 18 len behind Sun Goddess carrying 58kg at $67. Previously second-up 14th of 25 in the LR Windsor Castle Stakes at Ascot on June 17 over 1207m, 6 len behind King Of Cloughan carrying 56kg at $4. Will find this easier and will be tough to beat.
