Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted August 26, 2018 Journalists Share Posted August 26, 2018 In a G2 Debutante S. fought out by one of the two most experienced in the line-up and the only maiden, it was the July 26 G3 Silver Flash S. winner Skitter Scatter (Scat Daddy) who drew away from Jim Bolger’s Bandiuc Eile (Ire) (New Approach {Ire}) to take this important Curragh staging post with authority by 2 1/4 lengths. Sent off at 7-1 despite being the only filly in a strong-looking line-up to have won a pattern-race, the bay travelled smoothly off the pace and when sent forward by Ronan Whelan took control with 1 1/2 furlongs remaining. As she asserted on the run to the line, Bandiuc Eile managed to turn around a 4 1/2-length beating by Ballydoyle’s Zagitova (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) in a Cork maiden over a mile Aug. 11. Over a furlong less here, Bandiuc Eile had a half length to spare over that well-supported 2-1 favourite who in turn held off the 10-length conditions scorer Lady Kaya (Ire) (Dandy Man {Ire}) by 3/4 of a length.
