Curragh Race 2 - Nua Clad Hub Irish European Breeders Fund Maiden
MONMOUTH (11) First time at the races 3yo by Kingman for A P Obrien. Jockey R L Moore rates highly aboard. Follow the money. BREAKING DAWN (4) First up after a break. Came in 4th last start at Naas. Expecting improvement but back to a shorter trip. Won't be far away during the run. Has the ability to figure. FATE'S GAMBIT (8) Ordinary performance when 5th last time at Dundalk but going down in class. Should jump out and bowl along. Recent form of Robson De Aguiar is strong. One of the major players. KEOGIE (10) First start at the races 3yo by Sergei Prokofiev for Noel Meade. Watch the market.

Resuming after a 72 week spell. Honest race when 3rd last start at Navan and having second career run. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide stall. Prefer a race with softer competition.

Odds of 12/1 and lacklustre showing when 12th last run at Dundalk but fitter for debut run. Gets back and needs luck. Drawn well. Minor chance.

Fresh after a break. Jumped at 80/1 and well beaten when 15th last time around here. Might have to make up considerable ground. Need a lot of luck to be close to winning this.

Resuming. Started at 9/2 and ran 4th last start at Naas. Expecting improvement but will be facing a significant drop in distance. Likely to be well placed early. Expect a forward showing.

Back after break of 32 weeks. Was 14/1 and ran 4th last run at Galway but competing in a less challenging grade. Likely to get back in the run. Not at all out of this race.
