O’BRIEN’S SHIP WILL SAIL

ter than the final result. He looks capable of dealing with Anthony Van Dyck. That one was quite green on his debut in a Curragh maiden a fortnight ago, but he did finish out his race nicely.

Colin Keane, who rides Yonkers, can also bag the median auction maiden on Willie Mullins’ Maze Runner.

This 73-rated three-year-old hasn’t run this season, but that isn’t a concern for a representa­tive of the Mullins yard.

A repeat of the form he showed on his first two runs last season should enable him to take this race which doesn’t contain much strength.

Echo Park is the choice in the fillies maiden after posting some good efforts in defeat lately.

Georgian Bay made a bright start to his career with Adrian Mcguinness when finishing third to Red Avenger in a Curragh handicap a fortnight ago.

If he can perform to a similar level in the mile handicap he should have the measure of Atlas.

Birth Of Venus and Dawn Hoofer, who dominated a Gowran handicap last month, face off in the finale.

Once again the vote goes to Birth Of Venus who looks one that will improve for the step up in trip.
