G3 – 1400m – Turf

1 Mysterious Night Ended fine 2-y-o season with impressive success in Grade 1 race at Woodbine. Last when favourite for Group 3 in April and not seen since. A puzzle.
2 The Antarctic Improved through last year, ending with placed runs in G1s over 1200m. Won G3 at Naas over same trip in May. Good chance if stays.
3 Age Of Kings Creditable efforts at G2/3 level last year. Well beaten in G1 Irish 2000 Guineas in May. Needs more.
4 Alexander John Eight race maiden. Out of his depth.
5 Covey Very progressive. Led and dominated good Class 2 Handicap over 1634m at Haydock in May. Leading contender.
6 Empty Metaphor Well beaten in G3 at Leopardstown when 100/1 then narrowly won maiden over 1400m at Limerick. An unlikely winner.
7 Enfjaar Won both outings, latest easily in a novice over 1600m on all-weather track. Likely to improve further and an interesting candidate.
8 Flight Plan Narrowly beaten in Listed race over 1605m before outclassed in G1 2000 Guineas. Has to show is competitive at this level.
9 Holguin Big rise in handicap mark after finished between two higher rated rivals in Listed race in May. Again second in Listed race since. Not ruled out.
10 Holloway Boy Placed in G2 and G3 races last year then respectable third in G1 over 1600m. Well beaten in G1 2000 Guineas. May be best over 1400m on good ground.
11 Quar Shamar After won maiden readily over 1600m took on G1 Irish 2000 Guineas. Creditable sixth place puts him in the mix here.
12 Streets Of Gold Won all five races as 2-y-o, ending by winning good Class 2 Handicap over 1400m at York. Finding it harder this year, third in Listed race this month. Needs to resume progress.
13 Thunderbear Took seven attempts before first win last year. Improving and good fourth in G3 over 1186m at Naas in May when 50/1. Needs more.
14 Zoology Not run since well beaten in G3 over 1400m at Newbury in April. Tough task.
15 Olivia Maralda Runner-up in a G2 over 1400m at the Curragh as 2-y-o and impressed, with several of today’s rivals behind, when winning Listed race at Epsom this month. A good chance.
