Naas Race 8 - Irish Stallion Farms Ebf Auction (Pro/Am) Flat Race
BURNING ABILITY (4) managed to build on a debut fifth in a Listowel maiden hurdle when 0.75L second attempting a Galway jumpers flat. Further progress expected. Strong chance third-up. SPRINGS STEEN (3) was able to keep on well delivering an eye-catching third on racecourse debut in a Navan jumpers flat last month. Looks capable of making a bright start to his hurdling career. Main danger. LENNON GROVE (12) improved for a 0.75L runner-up effort at Thurles. Could be in the mix now tackling obstacles. Shortlist. OF LAND AND SEA (2) was fourth behind the just mentioned on first career outing at Thurles. Now with the Paul Hennessy stable. Might feature. Something for the Multiples: THINK IT THROUGH (13)

At debut, ran on strong from last on the turn; finished third of 10 runners at Navan on November 17 over 3218m, 1.3 len behind Oh My Word carrying 73kg at $19. Definite winning chance. Will be even better for the run and looks a key chance.

Facing the starter for the third time today. When well supported at debut, finished fifth of 11 runners at Listowel on September 25 over 3218m, 8 len behind Heads Up with 70.5kg at $41. Second-up finished second of 8 starters at Galway on October 25 over 3319m, 0.8 len behind Our Guide with 72kg at $3.50. Rates well. Can go right on with the job.
