Bright Legend^h⁹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: J M Sheridan| T: J A Stack| OR: 91| D

5/1

Zoustar colt. Much-improved from debut despite still looking rough around the edges when winning 12-runner maiden at the Curragh (10f) back in April. Absent since but he's very much the type to go on improving. Respected.

Form: 81

Dutch Gold²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Colin Keane| T: N Meade| OR: 90| D

15/8

Fairly useful colt. Career best when winning 8-runner maiden (3/1) at Down Royal (10.3f, good) 21 days ago, easily. That may well not prove his limit at this sort of trip.

Form: 62-5531

Harbour Wind^p1⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Chris Hayes| T: D K Weld

15/8

Nathaniel gelding who impressed with his attitude when making a winning debut in a Cork maiden (1m) in May. Runner-up behind a more experienced sort at Roscommon (10f) since (pair clear) and has to be of interest again.

Form: 12

Immutable⁸²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Gary Carroll| T: J G Murphy| OR: 86

9/2

Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Naas (8f, heavy, 11/4) 82 days ago. Up in trip. Stable in good form. Should continue to give a good account.

Form: 4212-1

Nurburgring^t²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Hugh Horgan⁽⁷⁾| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 96| C

17/2

Lightly-raced course winner. 80/1, 18½ lengths twelfth of 14 to Gregory in Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot (14.2f, good) 24 days ago. Down in trip. Not taken lightly back in calmer waters.

Form: 6-150

(7)

Donadea Dreamer^p1²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: G M Ryan| T: G B Caldwell

250/1

Twice-raced maiden. 150/1, eleventh of 12 in maiden at Fairyhouse (12f, good) 29 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Plenty to find on form.

Form: 00

Tip The Can^t1⁶⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Rory Cleary| T: D English

250/1

Twice-raced maiden. 300/1 and visored for 1st time, ninth of 11 in maiden at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft) 60 days ago. Up in trip. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 09

Forecasts

Harbour Wind (15/8), Dutch Gold (15/8), Immutable (9/2), Bright Legend (5/1), Endless Sunshine (13/2), Nurburgring (17/2), Tip The Can (250/1), Donadea Dreamer (250/1)

Despite still looking rough very rough around the edges, BRIGHT LEGEND was impressive when seeing off a now useful performer (the pair clear) at the Curragh back in April and, with the prospect of more to come, he gets the vote to follow up. Harbour Wind and Nurburgring back in calmer waters are others fancied to be in the shake up.
