Progressed nicely in each of three juvenile runs, notably making all in Listowel rated race on heavy ground (1m); followed up on seasonal return when tongue-tied in 1m2f Cork conditions last month, dictating steady pace then battling well; Derby entry looks the type to keep progressing and could well improve for this longer trip.

T: Joseph Patrick O’Brien

Progressed nicely in each of three juvenile runs, bumping into smart Ballydoyle colts on first two before landing Listowel rated race in September, making all on heavy ground (1m); should relish middle-distances this year (Derby entered) and fitted with a tongue-tie for seasonal return.

T: Joseph Patrick O’Brien

Has bumped into smart sorts on both starts; finished 3.25l behind Endorsement when third to Group 2 winner Benvenuto Cellini at Killarney on debut; closed the gap on the former when second to him at Tipperary since; given a rating of 90 for this and looks to have a leading chance.

New Bay colt a 210,000gns yearling; half-brother to 1m-1m3f winner Lone Eagle (Group 3; Irish Derby runner-up; RPR 120); dam 1m-1m4f winner (106) and half-sister to 1m Listed winner Chasing Stars; easy to back on Killarney debut last month, shaping nicely when third behind a smart type; has over 3l to find with second-placed Endorsement however.

210,000gns yearling; fifth foal; half-brother to 1m-1m3f winner Lone Eagle (Group 3; Irish Derby runner-up; RPR 120); dam 1m-1m4f winner (106) and half-sister to 1m Listed winner Chasing Stars; one of two newcomers for the yard so the betting should be informative.
