RFL Steels Stakes (Listed Race)

Multiple winner who loves the Curragh where he was second to Tango Flare in a handicap before running flat in a Group 3; finished close up when third in this 12 months ago, so definite chance if back on song.

Smart 2yo who nearly won a Group 3 over 5f and a Listed winner this season; dropped his guard of late, though did contest the Group 1 Flying Five last time; this is a belated first try at 6f but it might suit.

Smart sprint form in America and may have found the yielding ground soft enough in a Listed at Tipperary; it could be a similar scenario here but the conditions are forecast to dry out and he now goes in a tongue-tie; respected.

Grabbed his first handicap at odds of 50-1 at the Curragh a month ago, repelling Big Gossey (6f, yielding); no good thing to confirm those placings with the second who has a pull in the weights; furthermore, there are others to worry about.

Has become hard to win with since landing a Group 3 as a 3yo but it was a good run in a deep Ascot handicap last time (5f, good to soft) and returning to further should suit (second in this 12 months ago); solid chance.
