District Speciality Coffee Apprentice Maiden

Course bumper winner went close when a 0.75l behind Winter Fog at Tramore (2m, good) last week; debateable whether this shorter trip will be ideal.

Good effort on debut at Naas (10.5f, yielding) when a 1l third of 12; weakened late over 1m4f at Bellewstown (good); might have needed that after a short break and not discounted for last year's winning stable.

77 rated colt is one of two for yard; best run for George Scott was a head second in a Wolverhampton maiden (9.5f) in February; left that stable after a disappointing run on handicap bow at Newmarket; makes debut for new yard that is in red hot form; can't be discounted.

Rated 74; second runner for yard; best effort last year a 3l third of 9 in a Tipperary maiden (7f, soft); off since a below par run at Down Royal in July 2024 and has been gelded; probably best watched upped in trip unless money comes.

Sea The Stars gelding; brother to Group-placed 1m AW winner Fresnel (RPR 99), closely related to Italian 1m3f-1m7f winner Fortunino (inc Listed); dam unraced; nicely bred and from respected source so check the market.
