Has already scored in Listed company at Naas this summer over this trip. Well held latest at Tipperary however and stablemate Lost Treasure may be the yard's best hope.

Hasn't beaten a rival home in four starts since 2016, albeit in some decent races. Once a useful juvenile prospect but all to prove these days and others plenty more likely.

Perfect two from two this season, both wins at the Curragh over this 5f trip and latest on handicap bow. Held off Amanaat by a ½L then and despite change in terms, likely can confirm the placings.

First run for this trainer when going down ½L behind Lost Treasure at the Curragh eight days ago. Entitled to feel he'll have a good chance on revised terms but that rival has plenty scope for improvement and may keep the advantage.

Has won three times in Britain this season over this trip, albeit in low grades. Ran a big race in a valuable Curragh handicap on previous trip to these shores and can't be ruled out.

Four-time winner, including on heavy ground over C&D in April. Disappointing in the main subsequently and seemingly up against it in this line-up again.

Forecasts

Lost Treasure (11/8), Amanaat (7/4), Only Spoofing (11/2), Dali (8/1), Sors (16/1), Mister Trader (40/1)

Verdict

There was much to like about the way in which LOST TREASURE followed a maiden success with a handicap win at the Curragh recently. Aidan O'Brien's charge looks to be progressing now and, despite a pull at the weights, can confirm superiority over Amanaat here. UK raider Only Spoofing has shown he's got a big run in him and isn't taken lightly while the selection's stablemate Dali isn't without hope despite shipping weight in all directions.
  1. Lost Treasure
  2. Amanaat
  3. Only Spoofing
