G2 – 1600m – Turf

1

Bold Discovery

Disappointing on last two starts. Supporters will hope to see the same spark that saw him win a good-ground G3 over this trip here in May.

2

Flight Plan

His last win came with a front-running victory in this race last year. Led until weakening late in a York G3 in August.

3

Lord Massusus

A good fourth in this last year considering he raced too keenly. A close third in a G3 last time, another good Leopardstown effort.

4

Maljoom

Tackling G1 company on his last three starts, and good chances if he can repeat his second to the English 2000 Guineas winner at Goodwood in July.

5

Mutasarref

Having a terrific season, winning three of his last four starts including a fourth course win here at Leopardstown (G3) last month.

6

Poker Face

A six-time winner including at G2 level and returned to form when leading until near the end in a Goodwood G2 last month. Slow ground preferred.

7

Power Under Me

Gained his sixth career win at Naas in July, but best efforts have come on slow ground at this track including a G3 victory.

8

Gregarina

Often raced too freely when French trained. But relaxed nicely when winning a G3 at the Curragh back in May. Soft ground looks to suit best.

9

Bright Stripes

Wants slow ground, conditions that saw him win a 1600m Listed race at the Curragh. Some respectable G3 efforts since then, without threatening victory.

10

Diego Velazquez

Has sometimes proved very disappointing but his 7L winning romp in an 1800m G3 here in July showed what he is capable of.

11

Galen

Started favourite when moving up to G3 company here last month, finishing a close fourth which was quite encouraging.

12

Mountain Bear

A career best on his first run over this course and distance last month, a close second then and may have won that G3 granted a better trip.
