Dutch Art gelding, cost €120,000 as a foal. Dam a winner and half-sister to an Irish 1,000 Guineas winner. Not a good sign he has been gelded and that he was so keen on debut when behind Darkash at the Curragh.
Has shown plenty of pace but has failed to see his races out. Would make more appeal at 5f but not without a chance in a race that will take little winning.
€43,000 son of Helmet out of a modest winning sprinter. Not highly tried on debut and the market should be informative.
Forecasts
Darkash (5/4), Count D'Orsay (3/1), Asdaa (5/1), Larmour (11/2), Power Down (14/1), Frow (50/1)
DARKASH sets the standard having improved with each run and culminating in a good third at the Curragh last time. Count D'orsay has shown ability and speed, but a bigger threat may come from the newcomers Larmour and Power Down who both need to be monitored in the market.
