Dundalk Race 6 - Irish Stallion Farms Ebf Star Appeal Stakes (Listed)
SOUTH DAKOTA (7) fought off JOGA BONITO (4) to score at Roscommon (1500m) last month and it would be no surprise to see both dispute the finish again. That was a deserved first success for the Ballydoyle runner who can get set for better things while the second mentioned moves into black-type races for the first time and is good enough to play a major role. DEE'S FUNNY GIRL (9) missed by a neck contesting a G3 event at Ascot (1200m) two back. Failed to impress taking on this trip in a French G2 latest. Player here back to something easier. The unexposed SALT LAKE (6) easily landed a Naas 1200m maiden a fortnight ago. Looks a bright prospect. DUIDIN (2) joins the Donnacha O'Brien team and also shapes as one to watch closely.

Recent form sound. Comes here off a 32-day let-up. Last start 2nd of 9 at Roscommon on August 31 over 1508m, nose behind South Dakota carrying 59kg at $2.80. The run before that favourite; won by 3.5 len at Galway on July 31 over 1408m defeating Otherworldly with 59kg at $3.80. Hard to beat on his best form.

Recent form sound. Comes off a 32 day let-up. Most recently won by a nose at Roscommon on August 31 over 1508m defeating Joga Bonito carrying 61kg at $4. The run before that 3rd of 11 at Naas on August 3 over 1207m, 5.5 len behind Livenka with 61kg at $4.50. Terrific chance to continue the strong form.

Most recently 3rd in a small field at Cork on September 9 over 1207m, 2.5 len behind The Scallionator carrying 61kg at $2.40. The run before that won by 1.3 len at Naas on August 23 over 1207m defeating Capital Of Pride with 60.5kg at $2.10. Will not find this easy. Looks tested against this line-up.

Comes off a 40 day let-up. At the latest run ran last in a small field in the G2 Prix Du Calvados at Deauville on August 23 over 1400m, slow going 16 len behind Woot Woot carrying 56kg at $1.80. Before that came from the tail of the field 2nd of 11 in the G3 Princess Margaret Stakes at Ascot on July 25 over 1207m, neck behind Moonrise carrying 58kg at $10. Looks hard to beat in this easier level.
