Forecasts

Pierre Bonnard (6/5), Shaihaan (9/4), Nazario (15/2), Prospect Thunder (15/2), Daary (9/1), King Of Sparta (16/1), Masaban (18/1), Imaginary Money (100/1), Dialin For Dollars (100/1), Chapel Island (100/1), Zezuru (125/1), Star Of Tara (250/1)

Verdict

It was probably an above-average maiden at the Curragh in which SHAIHAAN made an encouraging start to his career and, with improvement likely now moving up to a mile, he is taken to emerge on top. Daary should also benefit from the step up to this trip having shaped well on his debut at Galway (winner of that maiden looks pretty useful) and he is second choice ahead of the Aidan O'Brien-trained duo, Pierre Bonnard and newcomer King of Sparta.

  1. SHAIHAAN (IRE)
  2. DAARY (IRE)
  3. PIERRE BONNARD (IRE)
