FormscanBy Alan Magee - HAT ALNASAR caught the eye on debut behind the impressive Charlie Bear over course and distance last month, and went desperately close to getting off the mark when returning here over a mile. The son of Moss Vale was pegged back virtually on the line by the 80-rated Song Of Love. The drop back to this trip shouldn’t be a problem, and he looks the type to progress with experience. Maronella appears the obvious threat although it will be interesting to see how her young rider copes with the occasion. The Johnny Murtagh-trained filly made a very pleasing start to her career when staying on nicely into third behind Red Ivy (rated 83) in a backend auction maiden on soft ground at Navan. She should appreciate this longer trip and, if handling this surface, is a big player. The market should give some clues as to the relative merits of newcomers Unchanged and Special Forces.

For three yrs old only, maidens at starting and whose sire established one or more yearling sales in 2013 with a median price of not more than E30,000
