FormscanBy Mark Nunan - POWERFUL KIERAN stayed on well to finish second over ten furlongs on handicap debut at Leopardstown last week and can go one better off a 4lb higher mark. The winner, Aurora Princess, followed up under a penalty on Monday and Joseph O’Brien’s gelding should appreciate the step up in trip here. Female Approach was sent off a big price on her first start in handicap company at Sligo but she emerged with plenty of credit when not beaten far in sixth. A couple of subsequent winners were in front of her and she looks a player off a pound lower. Given an initial mark of 85 last year, Lady Georgie continues to drop in the ratings but hasn’t been performing too badly at all and can make the frame for her young rider.
