Having shaped with plenty of promise when fourth on his debut at Navan, IPANEMA BEACH can take a significant step forward. The Donnacha O'Brien-trained colt was slowly into stride and had plenty to do at halfway, but ran on nicely once getting the hang of things inside the final furlong. Stepping up in trip should allow the son of Siyouni to travel easier in the early part of the race. With the Aidan O'Brien string really hitting form of late, newcomer Italy has to be respected. A well-bred son of Wootton Bassett, he should know his job first time up. Star Chamber is another who merits attention. |
The well bred Italy is likely to prove popular for top connections enjoying a fine spell at the moment. However, he will need to be decent to beat Ipanema Beach and ESTOUBLON who finished within a couple of places of each other on debut. Though the runner up that day has been well held since it still looks a decent level of form and both of today's challengers missed the break that day so improvement can be expected. The latter is bred to relish this longer trip so could reverse that form and get off the mark. |
