Naas Race 2 - Irish Stallion Farms Ebf (C & G) Mdn
Persian Force colt SALT LAKE (12) made a highly promising debut in losing out narrowly in placing second over 1408m at The Curragh just under four weeks ago. Selected to go one better. BOLD COMMANDER (4) registered a 7.8L fifth competing in a 1408m handicap at Galway at the end of July. Major threat returning to maiden company. Bayside Boy gelding OUR BOY BAILEY (10) failed to shine finishing 22L seventh in a 1408m maiden at Galway in July. Strong prospects on his earlier form. BENGAL TIGER (2) failed to shine in finishing 8.8L twelfth over 1207m at The Curragh on his racecourse debut. Improvement expected.
