Well held on bumper debut at Leopardstown (2m, soft) in January 2016 and a similar story in a point-to-point on his only subsequent start. Returns to rules following an eight month absence.

5/4
Decent effort to finish 9L 12th in a competitive bumper on good-to-yielding ground here back in April. Has joined a leading yard since and is likely to run well in this contest.
Unraced on the Flat for Aidan O'Brien and is out of a mare who is a half-sister to Group 1 winning juvenile Distant Music amongst others. Has joined a top yard and wears a tongue tie for today's racecourse debut.

Forecasts

Rhinestone (4/6), Athenean (5/4), Cesar Du Gouet (20/1)

Verdict

ATHENEAN showed plenty of ability when finishing mid-division here on debut and he can step up on that by taking this three runner bumper contest. Joseph O'Brien's debutant Rhinestone is taken to claim second with a tongue tie worn for today's debut while Cesar Du Gouet can finish third of the three runners.
  1. Athenean
  2. Rhinestone
  3. Cesar Du Gouet
