Tote.ie Median Auction Maiden

Very lightly-raced 4yo has shown nothing in three starts.

Well-beaten last in maidens at the Curragh and Dundalk.

170,000gns yearling; favourite, plenty green when runner-up on debut in Dundalk maiden in late March (7f), following month at same venue forced pace (unbalanced 2f out) but didn't get home over a mile; cheekpieces now fitted and marked drop in trip.

Went close on debut at Dundalk (7f) in January but hasn't reproduced that level of form in three runs since, not getting home on soft/heavy the last twice at the Curragh and Cork; return to better ground should suit and this doesn't look a strong maiden.

33,000euros yearling; half-brother to two winners (5f to 6f, inc Group-placed); last of 12 on debut at the Curragh in September and forced much of pace on seasonal return before fading on soft ground at Gowran last month; probably more one for handicaps in due course.
