Down Royal Race 2 - Irish Stallion Farms Ebf Mdn
FORZA MAGICO (4) was defeated at Navan by a nose providing her most recent start. Freshened since that outing and fancied to get the better of her rivals here. OTSANA (9) finished 4L adrift at the Curragh on debut. Plenty of positives to be taken from that day while the 1000m trip should rate as a plus. OSTERODE (8) went well on both starts to date when proving popular. Didn't have the clearest of passages running fifth last time out at Dundalk trying 1000m. Might do better here. KISS DON'T TELL (6) managed to claim second two starts ago. Not performed to the same standard since. Could bounce back with this looking easier.

Resuming. Not seen since he finished last of 8 at Sligo May 3 over 1307m, 35 len behind County Carlow with 58.5kg at $501. On debut ran last of 23 at Curragh March 15 over 1609m, in the wet; 97 len behind Victory Tip with 57kg at $251. Will be better for the run.

Raced twice to date. When well in the market at debut, 4th of 13 at Cork on June 14 over 1005m, 3.5 len behind Xerling carrying 58.5kg at $4. Last start 5th of 12 at Dundalk All Weather on August 15 over 1005m, 6 len behind Institute with 58.5kg at $5. Likely improver who can get off the mark this time.

First-starter by Invincible Army out of Crafty Notion. Prefer to let go without a strong market move.
