FormscanBy Michael Graham - BOLLEVILLE ought to be taken very seriously on Irish debut for Joseph O'Brien. She was a wide-margin winner of three races in France, including in Listed company in November. The four-year-old Camelot filly ought to be ready to go after her last placed effort in Listed class in May, and should be an each-way price for her backers. She is ground versatile and it is worth noting that this strong stayer holds an entry in the Irish St Leger. Keats is a major threat. It was interesting to read the quotes from jockey Wayne Lordan after he won on him over a mile in Killarney. He said he felt the last day (when runner-up over this trip to better fancied stablemate Napa Valley in the Curragh) that he would have every chance of getting a mile and a half and he still thought the same after winning in Killarney. If similar forcing tactics are used in this contest he could keep the gallop up, in receipt of the three-year-old allowance, over this 10-furlong trip. This is a drop in class for former Irish Derby winner Latrobe, and with a mark of 111 he could take advantage, but he has plenty of weight to give away. The admirable Bowerman isn't out of it.
