Agitare³³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: K J Manning| T: J S Bolger| OR: 99

25/1

Useful gelding. 40/1, good seventh of 9 to Layfayette in Alleged Stakes at the Curragh (10f, good to soft) 33 days ago. Significantly up in trip but he can't be discounted.

Form: 901-067

Kyprios²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 113| D

1/10

Lightly-raced sort who posted a career best when winning 9-runner Vintage Crop Stakes at Navan (14f) 20 days ago by 2¾ lengths from Search For A Song. Very much the one to beat.

Form: 16/14-1

(2)

Sunchart²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Andrew Slattery| T: A Slattery| OR: 101

10/1

Useful gelding. Raced too freely when 10½ lengths sixth of 9 to Kyprios in Vintage Crop Stakes at Navan (14f) 20 days ago. Yard in good form, so he could easily bounce back.

Form: U626-26

(3)

Pineapple Express²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Ben Coen| T: A Slattery| OR: 95

20/1

Useful mare who resumed after 6 months off with creditable third of 12 to Thunder Kiss in listed race (22/1) at Cork (12.1f) 27 days ago. This is tougher, though.

Form: 51240-3

Forecasts

Kyprios (1/10), Sunchart (10/1), Phoenix Cowboy (10/1), Pineapple Express (20/1), Agitare (25/1)

Lightly-raced KYPRIOS ran out an emphatic winner of the Vintage Crop Stakes at Navan and is a confident choice to follow up before going onto better things. Agitare and Sunchart appeal as the pick of the remainder and can chase home Aidan O'Brien's very smart staying prospect in that order.
