Punchestown
Mon 9th Nov

Formscan By Gary Carson - SMOKIN ACES (7) was a 220,000gns purchase as a yearling and is interesting here for Willie Mullins. The Galiway filly is a half-sister to the Listed-placed Inuit. This probably wasn’t the original idea for her but she commands respect given connections. Ciaran Murphy runs two in John Magnier’s colours and Why Wait has form in the book, having been placed at Cork last month. She probably needs to step forward from that run. Gordon Elliott introduces Silk’s Legacy, a filly by Shirocco, and she’s another to note in the market. She is a daughter of ‘Fred Winter’ winner Silk Affair so is bred for this game.
