Irish EBF Pat Smullen Stakes (Listed Race)

Australia colt a 100,000euros yearling; half-brother to winners Orlaith (5f 2yo inc Listed; RPR 97), Florida Filly (5f 2yo inc AW; 85) and Tammy Wynette (5f AW; 83); dam unraced half-sister to 7f 2yo Group 1 winner Toormore; market best guide on debut over a long enough trip for his pedigree.

500,000gns yearling; third foal; Wootton Bassett half-brother to 7.5f 2yo winner Blindsided; dam Listed winner, out of half-sister to Group 1 winner Sendawar; made good impression when claimer-ridden on last month's debut to win Gowran maiden over 7f (soft), green but strong at the finish; should be more to come at 1m.

40,000gns yearling; Oasis Dream colt; first foal; dam 7f AW winner, half-sister to useful 6f 2yo winner The Paddyman; family of Ribblesdale winner Gull Nook (dam of King George winner Pentire); barrier trial winner didn't lack for market support on Curragh debut last month, showing plenty of pace in finishing decent fourth in what looked a strong 7f maiden; not sure if this longer trip will be in his favour though.

Bated Breath colt went down by neck to Leblon Queen on Roscommon debut in May before going one better at Fairyhouse last month (7f, good), getting up late after being carried left; shapes as though 1m will suit but this tougher.

Starman colt a 180,000gns yearling; second foal; dam US 7.5f-1m1f turf winner (inc stakes); promising debut in Curragh maiden last month and took full advantage of that experience 16 days later to land the odds at Down Royal, making all to win well; type to continue improving and should make a bold bid if staying this longer trip.
