Naas Race 3 - Coolmore Stud Blackbeard Race
STAR PROSPECT (2) aims to remain unbeaten after winning at the first time of asking scoring by 1.25L contesting a two-year-old conditions race at The Curragh. May gain a double in similar fashion. NEW YORKER (1) represents notable connections with a leading jockey and trainer combination. Won on debut at Dundalk AW however failed to follow up when third in the Listed First Flier Stakes at The Curragh. Can return to winning ways. WHAT A GIRL WANTS (5) placed second ahead of the second pick in the Listed First Flier Stakes at The Curragh. Might go one better. PALA AURELIA (4) is the only debutant in the field. Could have an impact first-up.

Getting off the mark on debut; won by 1.3 len at Curragh April 19 over 1005m on a rain affected track defeating Carry The Flag carrying 59.5kg at $5.50. Likely to be popular with punters and looks very tough to beat again.
