SHE’S A RIGHT BLOOM-ER!

-

THE promising Bloomfield can deliver on last year’s promise by landing the featured Noblesse Stakes at Cork this afternoon.

In just three starts last season, the Willie McCreery inmate showed a good level of form and she should be more than good enough to make her mark at this level.

It is encouragin­g that she won her maiden on soft ground and she signed off with an excellent second to Eziyra in a Group 3 over this course and distance last August. If she can run to a similar level on her return she is likely to take a good deal of beating.

Earlier on the card the Jessica Harrington­trained Escapabili­ty makes plenty of appeal in the median auction maiden.

This colt ran very well on the opening day of the season to finish a close third in a mile maiden. He will be hard to beat if turning up in similar form.

Another horse to take the eye in the first turf fixture of 2018 was Saltonstal­l, who ran very well to take second in the Irish Lincoln.

That was his first run for almost a year and it indicated he could be set for a profitable campaign.

Our Anniversar­y won well here at Easter. She went up 7lb for that win, but this may not prevent her from landing the apprentice rider’s handicap.

An Saighdiur showed signs of a revival last time and he could won the last.
