Killarney Race 3 - Irish Stallion Farms Ebf (C & G) Maiden
IRON FIST (7) brings plenty of racecourse experience. Placed 0.5L second two starts ago at Fairyhouse before finishing eighth at The Curragh. Can bounce back. HELLORHIGHWATER (6) was runner-up on debut at Limerick last month. Might go one better. CHESTER NIMITZ (5) hopes to turn two runner-up finishes into a win after placing second at Bellewstown and Sligo. Will be thereabouts. JOUSTING (8) looks interesting making seasonal reappearance.

Is first-up after a break of ten weeks and has been in the money when fresh before.

Previously first up; fourth of 13 at Curragh March 16 over 1207m, soft track; 1.75 len behind Glen To Glen with 61kg at $9. Looks very hard to beat.

Resuming after a lengthy spell. Only one run when 7th of 11 at Naas on October 12 over 1609m, 7 len behind Galveston carrying 60.5kg at $4. Can improve so not to be underestimated.
