Formscan By John O'Riordan - Joseph O'Brien, who has made a flying start to the new turf season, can land this with LISTENTODWINDBLOW. A promising fourth on his debut at Cork last September, the Wootton Bassett colt was far from disgraced when finishing mid division in two strongly contested sales races subsequently. Again, there was enough to take from his final outing when sixth in a Group 3 at Leopardstown to suggest he should be winning his maiden. Third on his sole start as a juvenile, the Johnny Murtagh-trained Zenford is entitled to be all the better for that initial experience. Spacebound, who shaped with promise on his introduction at Dundalk in January is another with claims.
For three years old and upwards, maidens at starting
Weights - 3-y-o 9st 6lbs 4-y-o and up 10st 7lbs. Fillies allowed 5lbs.

Quotes on Thisistheway (IRE)
Her dam won twice in Wexford and won three overall. She also got Grade 3 black type. This is the first foal out of her and while she is not a big mare, she is a lot bigger than the dam who was tiny. She was ready to run in May and we let her out because the ground went too quick. She is actually not that long back in and I thought she might need the run, but because it's so close to home we said we'd come here and maybe in three weeks time go to Ballinrobe for the four-year-old fillies bumper. She is after winning now so we might go for the mares winners' race in Down Royal or go straight to the Listed bumper at Gowran. If the ground is okay she will probably go to Down Royal before Gowran. My father (Charlie) bought the granddam (Party Woman) as a foal and she won three times before she chipped a bone in her knee. She produced Little Mitch then and it's a real fillies pedigree. We still have Little Mitch at home and hopefully there is a couple more to come along out of her.
