Irish EBF Auction Series Race Final

Beaten similar distances in a Leopardstown maiden and at Roscommon recently (Giovanni Giorgio was 10l in front); hard to see him overturning that.

One of four for trainer; some good runs in defeat in four maidens, including when beaten a head by Madbadanddangerous over C&D last month (yielding to soft); couldn't justify 5-6 favouritism at Thurles three days ago (1m, good to yielding) and McMonagle jumps off now.

One of four for trainer; some debut promise at the Curragh and stepped up on that run (albeit beaten odds-on favourite) when just going down in a prolonged duel over 7.5f at Roscommon in August; sent off odds on again at Tipperary later that month (7.5f, yielding) where he finished behind both Redemption Road and Madbadanddangerous; McMonagle jumps ship now

One of four for trainer; a close-up fourth on Cork debut and stepped up to 7f for the Goffs Million at the Curragh last month when a 6.5l tenth (soft); not discounted by McMonagle rides Green Citation.

One of four for trainer and appears the pick of them on jockey bookings; didn't get a clear run but ran on well on Down Royal debut (7f, good) when handled considerably and running green; Lucia Molloy was in front of him that day but with that run under his belt he can do better now.
