Leopardstown Race 5 - Mongey Communications Killavullan Stakes (Group 3)
TREAN (6) Fought on gamely when winning by 1/2L last run at Curragh and hard to fault at this trip. Jockey Billy Lee and trainer Paddy Twomey deserve respect as a team. Must be considered. BENGAL TIGER (1) Racing on a quick back up. Ran away with a win by a margin of close to 11L last run at Naas and promising career start. Hard to overlook. CAPABILITY BROWN (2) Displayed potential when winning by 2L last time at Curragh and good career start. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Goes very close. NOUVEAU GREY (4) Bold effort to win by 2 1/2L last run at Naas and having second race start. Can figure.

Backs up quickly. Found another gear when winning by close to 11L last run at Naas and solid career start. Expecting to settle positively. In fine form this preparation. Great chance.

Landed the spoils when winning by 2L last time at Curragh and showing consistent performance in races. Won't be far away during the run. Very competitive this campaign. Can win this.

Got the prize when winning by 2 1/2L last run at Naas and was a debutant last start. Strong claims in this.

Odds of $19.00 and unimpressive effort when 15th last start at Curragh but taking on a lower class of opponents. Will try to take advantage of the draw. Unfortunately, it seems unlikely.

Secured a close victory last run at Curragh and solid performer at this distance in the past. Jockey Billy Lee and trainer Paddy Twomey are consistently competitive together. Winning chance.

Started at $81.00 and finished 6th last start at Dundalk but matched against lesser competition. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Looks to be in trouble.
