Formscan By Tom Weekes - ACAPULCO BAY has an excellent pedigree, ran a very promising race on debut over today's course and has a host of big-race entries in the coming months. He was second-string to a once-raced stablemate on debut and while it took him a little while to initially quicken, he finished strongly and today's step up to a mile should suit. Genealogy was a 400,000gns yearling and is out of a juvenile-Group-placed dam who is related to 1,000 Guineas winner Finsceal Beo but is a second-string of the selection's. Of those with form, Emit showed promise on Leopardstown debut but looks vulnerable to smart types while Nakatomi was well beaten by an impressive winner at Dundalk recently.
