J: Gavin Ryan

T: Donnacha Aidan O’Brien

Shaped with promise on debut before a third behind Italy at Leopardstown and another good run in defeat when beaten 1l in a 7f Curragh maiden; shown less at 1m since though and now tried without headgear; sets the standard if he can get back to his best.

J: Paddy Harnett

T: Donnacha Aidan O’Brien

Steady improvement in first three runs in decent maidens won by Ballydoyle colts, including getting up on post for third over 7f at the Curragh; softer ground may not have suited when way below his best at Killarney last time (1m); should appreciate return to better ground and big player if staying (blinkers replace cheekpieces).

J: Gavin Ryan

T: Donnacha Aidan O’Brien

Has advanced his RPRs with each run, last time finishing close up behind two Ballydoyle inmates over 7f at the Curragh (good; first run in cheekpieces); brings experience and his yard has won this maiden three times in four years.

Came from off the pace to finish fourth behind the smart-looking Charles Darwin on debut in a 6f maiden at Navan in April; got a bit closer when third behind another Aidan O'Brien odds-on chance over 7f at Leopardstown; looks in need of further already; cheekpieces fitted now.
