Half-brother to winners Lisboa (1m2f; RPR 84) and Sound It Out (Australian 7.5f); dam Group-placed 6f winner (109), closely related to useful 7f/1m winner Aerion Power, out of 7f 2yo winning half-sister to Irish 2,000 Guineas winner Power; one of two potentially smart newcomers representing Ballydoyle and the market should be instructive.

Has run nine times, including in five stakes races; contested the Middle Park as the stable outsider two weeks ago; could be competitive now, given his depth of experience and the drop in class.

One of three Ballydoyle runners; produced peak effort in Listed grade; bottom of this pack on the figures and record of just 1-8 reflects that he's an exposed sort now.

Naas maiden winner who hit the crossbar in a Listed race at Tipperary in July and bounced back from a lesser run in a Group 3 when a close fourth at Navan 13 days ago; return to 5f is no issue and ought to go well.

Consistent enough in defeat in maidens and nurseries but didn't seem to get home over 6f the last twice including behind Prarie Echoes at Sligo; may do better back to this trip.

Regressive RPRs in maidens and was 18-1 when fifth of eight on nursery debut at the Curragh (6f) where she raced too freely; no surprise to see some headgear now turned to.

Form & Verdict
Showed plenty of pace when fourth at Cork last week (5f, good) and that could turn out to be a good race, as the winner is well bred, the second well fancied and the third was runner-up in the Curragh race in whcih Leblon Beach ran fifth; could have a part to play with experience in the bag.

Won three of his six starts as a juvenile, including a Group 3 at the Curragh (6f, good to yielding) and a valuable conditions race at Ascot (6f, good); struggled when dropped to 5f at the Breeders' Cup on final start; ran out a ready winner of a C&D Listed contest on seasonal return to mark his first victory over the minimum trip; carries a penalty but big chance of following up.
