Leopardstown Race 2 - Irish Stallion Farms Ebf Maiden
SLANEY DRIVE (11) did well first up producing a 3.25L third in a 2400m maiden at the Curragh. Open to progress representing a notable yard. Serious player. WILD SAPPHIRE (14) placed twice from three starts including a 1L second contesting a 1600m maiden at Gowran Park during April. Makes plenty of appeal. CADOGAN (4) shaped with credit last October running fifth in a 1400m maiden here. Interesting chance on return. SIGLIOSA (10) warrants a market check.
