Form & Verdict
Stepped up from his first two runs with a 6f win at Naas last July when wearing first-time cheekpieces; a revelation on his reappearance in the Gladness Stakes at the Curragh 11 days ago; belied his 28-1 odds (stablemate Albert Einstein 11-10 fav) with a prominent run, stuck to his task to finish third, splitting older horses rated 109 and 112.

J: Ryan Moore

T: A P O’Brien

Has improved on his 2yo efforts this term, winning a conditions race at Gowran (7f, soft; unraced on firmer than good) in between thirds in Listed races at the Curragh; solid chance on the figures and he's Ryan Moore's pick; wears blinkers for the first time.

9st 5lb

J: Wayne Lordan

T: A P O’Brien

Didn't show much in first two starts but made it third time lucky when winning a median sires series race at Naas (6f, good); reappeared with a decent third here behind the evergreen Big Gossey in the Gladness Stakes (7f, sft-hvy); took the scalp of Greek Mythology at Gowran (7f, soft) last time but that rival lacked a recent run; top rated but Moore prefers Causeway.

Form & Verdict
Winner of a 5f maiden at Naas last September on the second of three starts for Aidan O'Brien; finished last of eight, weakening from 1f out, in a 7f Listed event at Dundalk in October; provided reassurance that he stays this far when beaten only a head by the Ballydoyle-trained Causeway in the Madrid Handicap at Naas on debut for Danny Murphy.

Ex-Ballydoyle performer won 5f maiden at this track last term and fine second in Madrid Handicap over 7f here on his return; well beaten last time and vulnerable off this mark; best form on soft.

Winner of his second maiden start for Aidan O'Brien in a 5f contest here following the application of blinkers in September; upped to Listed level at Dundalk (7f) next time but finished last of eight, weakening from 1f out; cheekpieces on now but questions remain regarding this trip.

Form & Verdict
Off the mark at the second attempt in a C&D maiden last August (good); fair third in a rated race over an extended 7f at Roscommon; failed to get a clear run in a 6f Listed race at Fairyhouse, and his sixth placing can be upgraded; never got in a blow when joint-favourite for the 6f Birdcatcher Nursery.

J: Rory Mulligan

T: J P Murtagh

7f winner at Gowran at two and a fair fifth in a 7f Listed contest at Fairyhouse, achieving a peak official rating of 90; regressive this term, resulting in a slump to a mark of 79; stable is in flying form; hard to know if he can recapture his best form.

J: Rory Mulligan

T: J P Murtagh

7f winner at two and fair fifth in a 7f Listed contest at Fairyhouse; this season's form has been uninspiring; perhaps cheekpieces will help his cause; others much preferred, including stablemate Nakamura.

J: Ben Coen

T: J P Murtagh

7f winner at two and fair fifth in Listed contest over C&D; hasn't settled over 7f in both runs this term and has faded; drop back in trip a good move and will have more to offer if they can get him to race on an even keel.
