The going is Good.
Zarak gelding backed up a promising Curragh debut in March when made plenty of use of in beating a subsequent winner in 1m2f Leopardstown maiden last month, both those runs on softish ground; big step up in trip here and faces quicker conditions now.
Progressed nicely in each of three juvenile runs, notably making all in Listowel rated race on heavy ground (1m); followed up on seasonal return when tongue-tied in 1m2f Cork conditions last month, dictating steady pace then battling well; Derby entry looks the type to keep progressing and could well improve for this longer trip.
The most experienced of these, having won Curragh 2yo maiden and twice campaigned in Group company, notably fifth in Group 1 Criterium International; underwhelming seasonal debut, however, in Epsom Classic Trial last month, weakening quite tamely final furlong; blinkers now tried and upped in trip.
Ulysses colt didn't run at two but three runs already this term, showing plenty of improvement to land Ballinrobe maiden over this trip eight days ago, making virtually all to win handsomely (good-to-yielding); yard took same route with last year's winner Carmers en route to an Ascot success so demands plenty of respect.
Camelot filly a 270,000gns yearling; half-sister to winners Roi De France (Listed-placed 1m inc AW; RPR 112) and Vaguely Royal (1m4f Flat inc AW, 100; 1m7f hurdle); dam 1m/8.5f winner (inc AW 2yo/US turf stakes; 97); promising debut run in Leopardstown fillies maiden last month when chasing home a clear winner over 1m2f; should improve and win races but this looks a big jump in grade.
