Verdict
Jessica Harrington won this last year and the 650,000gns purchase SOUNDS OF HEAVEN made an eye-catching debut over the trip on soft ground at Gowran. The stable also run Scarlett O'Hara, a daughter of Frankel out of an unraced mare. Starry Eyed, a €1.5m son of Galileo out of a US Grade 1 winner, had stable companion Boogie Woogie well behind when narrowly beaten into third at Dundalk though the latter was impeded. Both are likely to make major progress while there are plenty of well-connected newcomers involved. Star Galaxy is by Sea The Stars out of a mare who produced a winner with her first offspring while Bataan is by Showcasing out of a 1m2f winner. Shamida, a half-sister to four winners, is another to look out for in what should prove an informative contest.
