Formscan By Donal Murphy - Despite proving fractious in the preliminaries prior to her debut at Leopardstown, CATALINA DELCARPIO could hardly have been more impressive. A 400,000 pounds yearling purchase, she readily accounted for six rivals at the Foxrock venue and while in a much deeper contest now, she could prove up to the task. The choice of Ryan Moore, Ecstatic looks the best of Aidan O'Brien's three. A fine second on her return to action at the Curragh recently, she should appreciate this step-up in trip to a mile and a quarter. Like the selection, Tarima also impressed on debut at Leopardstown and she looks the main danger. A half-sister to multiple Group 1 winners Tarnawa and Tahiyra, this Lope De Vega chestnut could very well emulate her siblings in time to come. Barnavara and Wemightakedlongway are the highest rated of those with a mark, and they should both step forward after failing to make an impact on their return to action at the same Leopardstown fixture last month.
