Curragh Race 1 - Irish European Breeders Fund Median Sires Series Mdn
KINDACAN (8) Unsatisfactory performance when 10th last run at Dundalk. Prefers to settle towards the rear. Strong chance. BAJAN BAMBI (7) First start at the races 2yo by Kodi Bear for Jessica Harrington. Watch early betting. ROCKFLEET (12) Racing as a debutant 2yo by Invincible Army for Jessica Harrington. Follow the money. CAPTAIN JAMES COOK (1) Looked good when 3rd last start at Cork and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Has shown early pace in races to date. Will have to carry more weight. A win wouldn't surprise.

Competitive effort when 3rd last start at Cork and showing improvement in recent outings. Should muster plenty of early toe. Will have to carry extra weight. Good value.

Started at $34.00 and underperformed when 8th last run at Listowel but having second career run. Down in trip. Would rather look at others.

At $301.00 below expectations when 11th last run at Naas but having second career run. Will be a challenge.

Odds of $3.20 and unimpressive effort when 10th last run at Dundalk. Likely to get back. Strong prospects in this race.

At $6.00 disappointing display when 9th last run at Dundalk but gets a favourable draw. Might have to make up considerable ground. Watch betting.

Jumped at $29.00 and only fair when 12th last run at Naas but having second race start. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Seems very unlikely.

At $151.00 mediocre display when 17th last start at Naas but was a debutant last start. Does take a while to get into stride. Unlikely to go close.
