Power Blue²⁴⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: D Egan| T: Robson Aguiar| OR: 114

17/2

Smart colt but not seen out after bagging 6f Phoenix Stakes at the Curragh in August on his final run for Adrian Murray. Should have no problems staying 7f and highly respected for his new yard.

Dorset¹⁷⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J Cleary| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 106| CD

4/1

Useful colt who ended last season on the up with wins in valualbe 7f event at the Curragh and 5-runner Killavullan Stakes here (7f) in the autumn. One of 4 for yard here but much respected.

Flushing Meadows²⁶²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 103| BF

4/1

Impressive debut winner of 6f Curragh maiden before fine second in Group 3 there later in June. Looked the type to go on improving but odds-on second in 7f Tyros Stakes here following month and not seen again. This son of Wootton Bassett is well worth another chance with Ryan Moore keeping faith.

Geryon^t1¹⁹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Gary Carroll| T: G M Lyons| OR: 107| D

17/2

Debut 7f maiden winner here and advanced his form when twice runner-up after, beaten 3¼ lengths by Hawk Mountain in Beresford Stakes at the Curragh (1m) final one. Tongue tied for return. Solid form claims.

Iron Lily¹⁶⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Billy Lee| T: Mrs J Harrington| D

18/1

Built on debut promise when landing 13-runner maiden at Dundalk (7f) in October. This is much tougher but this son of Wootton Bassett has more to offer.

Form: 21-

Mumhan¹⁷⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Oisin Murphy| T: J S Bolger

22/1

Debut winner of 6f Curragh maiden in September but he came in a well-held last of 5 to Dorset in Killavullan Stakes here (7f) following month. This is no easy return.

Form: 15-

Redemption Road⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Luke McAteer| T: D Marnane| OR: 89| D

25/1

Landed 7f maiden at Tipperary in August. Shaped encouragingly after 5 months off when third in 1m conditions event at Dundalk on his return. Faces a stiff task in this company though.

Form: 69128-3

(5)

The Publican's Son¹⁹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J M Sheridan| T: J P O'Brien

12/1

Shaped really well when a debut second in 6f Group 3 at the Curragh in August. Failed to build on it when 5 lengths eighth of 9 in Middle Park Stakes at Newmarket following month. Remains with lots of potential and not taken lightly with his sights now lowered.

Form: 28-

Thesecretadversary²¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: J A Stack| OR: 102| D

6/1

Fine runner-up in the Chesham at Royal Ascot and got off the mark in 7f listed event at Tipperary in August. Signed off with a good fifth in Summer Stakes at Woodbine (1m) following month.

Form: 22215-

Trojan Warrior¹⁷³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Wayne Lordan| T: A P O'Brien

6/1

Made a promising start when landing 11-runner maiden at the Curragh (6f, heavy) in October, well on top at the finish. This son of Wootton Bassett rates an interesting prospect for top yard.

Form: 1-

Warsaw^t1²⁹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Ronan Whelan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 99

9/1

Created an excellent impression when a debut Navan scorer in June and shaped encouragingly when 6¼ lengths tenth of 20 in Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot later in June. Off since but this son of Wootton Bassett colt should have more to offer. Tongue tie added.

Forecasts

Dorset (4/1), Flushing Meadows (4/1), Thesecretadversary (6/1), Trojan Warrior (6/1), Power Blue (17/2), Geryon (17/2), Warsaw (9/1), The Publican's Son (12/1), Iron Lily (18/1), Mumhan (22/1), Redemption Road (25/1)

Aidan O'Brien has taken the past 3 renewals of the Red Rocks and can continue his run with FLUSHING MEADOWS, who looked highly promising until suffering an odds-on reversal in the Tyros Stakes here in July. Ryan Moore retains faith in this Wootton Bassett colt though and he can return in style. The Publican's Son found the Middle Park too tough an ask on just his second start last season and is another who can get right back on track. Trojan Warrior, Dorset and Power Blue are also in the mix.
