4.10 Irish EBF Auction Series Race (6f, Yielding, 2yo)

1. Soy El Fuego (IRE) (No 6)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked first with a Total score of 294.
• Assessment: This two-year-old gelding, trained by G Lyons, is fitted with a tongue-tie for this race. He ran on well from midfield to finish sixth out of 28 in a 6f Curragh maiden, which was won by a subsequent Group 3 scorer, Mission Central. His drop to 5f at Bellewstown may not have been ideal, as he got outpaced late and weakened into fourth. The spotlight suggests he is worth another chance based on his Curragh debut and is slightly preferred to Rosie Frith. His trainer has a 57% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.

2. L L Koulsty (IRE) (No 5)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked second with a Total score of 270.
• Assessment: This two-year-old, trained by J S O’Donoghue, shaped quite well on his debut at Leopardstown, despite showing inexperience. However, the form of that race, which was dominated by outsiders, is considered hard to assess. The spotlight notes that he showed ability first time out. His trainer boasts a 100% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.

4.40 Coolmore Stud Gleneagles Irish EBF (C & G) Maiden (6f, Yielding, 2yo)

1. Strike Zone (IRE) (No 7)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked first with a Total score of 297.
• Assessment: Trained by G Lyons, this two-year-old colt made an encouraging start to his career, keeping on for third behind his stablemate Amiata in a 5f maiden at Navan 13 days prior to this race. He holds an edge over fourth-placed Unionville, who had the benefit of a previous run. The spotlight considers him a “strong chance” and suggests that normal improvement from his recent Navan debut may be enough for him to prevail over Charles Fort. His trainer has a 57% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.

2. Charles Fort (No 3)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked second with a Total score of 295.
• Assessment: This two-year-old colt, trained by A P O’Brien, was the favourite on his debut over this trip at Fairyhouse, where he ran green but stayed on well to chase a clear winner. He still looked a bit raw when third behind a subsequent Group 2 runner-up at the Curragh and failed to find much when fourth over 7f at Gowran last week. The spotlight suggests he is not guaranteed to benefit from a drop in trip to 6f. His trainer has a 68% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.

5.10 William Hill Each Way Extra Handicap (6f, Yielding, 3yo+)

1. Kilmood Susan (IRE) (No 13)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked first with a Total score of 275.
• Assessment: This three-year-old filly, trained by D J Murphy, has only been out of the first four once in her nine-race career. She achieved a deserved 5f maiden win at Cork in June, wearing blinkers for the first time. She is considered to have an each-way chance from the same handicap mark as when she finished fourth in both her handicap starts. The spotlight highlights her as a consistent 5f course winner who deserves respect. Her trainer has a 25% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.

2. Colter Bay (FR) (No 7)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked second with a Total score of 271.
• Assessment: Trained by W Browne, this three-year-old gelding made a promising debut when finishing fifth in a Curragh maiden and then won a C&D maiden in July. The form of his maiden win has been boosted by subsequent wins from the runner-up and fourth-placed horse. The spotlight mentions him as a C&D maiden winner. His trainer has a 50% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.

5.40 Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden (7f, Yielding, 2yo)

1. Josh’s Joy (IRE) (No 7)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked first with a Total score of 297.
• Assessment: This two-year-old filly, trained by D A O’Brien, was a 100,000gns yearling. She was favourite for a 1m maiden at Leopardstown in July but was no match for the first two. However, she was only beaten a head by the favourite, Smexy, over 7f at the same venue last month, and is considered to have a “good opportunity here”. The spotlight (nap selection) suggests she probably does not need to improve much to win, having been beaten only a head on her second outing. Her trainer has a 57% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.

2. Nautic Star (IRE) (No 8)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked second with a Total score of 296.
• Assessment: Trained by Mrs J Harrington, this two-year-old filly made a satisfactory debut, finishing fifth out of ten in a 7f conditions race at the Curragh. The runner-up in that race, Minerva, was well beaten when favourite at Gowran last week. The spotlight considers her as one of the “likely dangers”. Her trainer has a 56% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.

6.10 Play Final One Standing By William Hill Handicap (0-60) (7f, Yielding, 3yo+)

1. Distillate (No 2)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked first with a Total score of 270.
• Assessment: This five-year-old, trained by A McGuinness, won a division of this race last season from a 4lb higher handicap mark. She recently got her head back in front at Laytown, winning in better style than the margin suggested. Slow ground on turf suits her, and she is considered a “major player”. The spotlight highlights that she has a 7lb penalty for her Laytown win but is still below last year’s winning handicap mark, and conditions are in her favour. Her trainer has a 48% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.

2. Lorr’s Girl (IRE) (No 10)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked second with a Total score of 235.
• Assessment: This four-year-old, trained by R Sweeney, also landed a division of this race last season. She has been performing well recently, with a narrow course defeat over 6f and a promising fourth from a wide draw at Leopardstown. While her best form is on quicker ground, she “warrants respect”. Her trainer has a 0% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.

6.40 William Hill Gold Weekend Starts 8am Friday Maiden (1m, Yielding, 3yo+)

1. Hellorhighwater (No 8)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked first with a Total score of 286.
• Assessment: This three-year-old, trained by G Cromwell, nearly won a Limerick maiden on debut and almost caught a well-backed favourite at Killarney since. He “sets the standard on form and ought to go well with more progress likely”. The spotlight identifies him as the one to side with after two narrow defeats, noting his versatility with regards to conditions, proven by his run on soft ground. His trainer has a 53% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.

2. Naples (IRE) (No 11)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked second with a Total score of 285.
• Assessment: Trained by P Twomey, this three-year-old received significant support on debut but could only finish fourth of 16. He was a beaten favourite again when he was unsuited by 6f in his latest race. A return to further may help, but he faces the challenge of the widest draw, which “probably won’t” assist him. His trainer has a 100% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.

7.10 Download The William Hill App Today Handicap (1m, Yielding, 3yo+)

1. Verhoyen (No 2)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked first with a Total score of 250.
• Assessment: This ten-year-old, trained by M Grassick, has hit the frame in two of his last three starts and is very well treated on old form. He was a useful front-runner in his prime, but this 1m trip seems to stretch him, and the expected rain “won’t help with regards to his stamina”. His trainer has a 25% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.

2. Burford Beauty (IRE) (No 10)

• TimeWise Ranking: Ranked second with a Total score of 249.
• Assessment: This three-year-old, trained by G Cromwell, improved from her debut when not beaten far in a Curragh maiden. However, there was no improvement for the step up to this 1m trip in her latest outing. A tongue-tie is now tried. His trainer has a 53% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days.
