Owenstown Stud Stakes (Listed Race)

Sole win last season came in the C&D Madrid handicap; ran a career best when a close second in the Curragh Group 2 Minstrel Stakes (7f, good to yielding) behind subsequent Group 1 winner Diego Velazquez; highly encouraging second in a Curragh Listed contest on return (7f, soft to heavy); however, he runs well fresh so there might not be boundless improvement to come.

Four-time winner at 6f-7f; won just once last season when landing a three-runner auction race at Fairyhouse (6f, good); subsequently placed in Listed and Group 3 company; built on decent Cork return when running on well for fourth over 5f here last time, from disadvantageous side of the track; this trip suits better and not ruled out.

British raider rediscovered his best when a visor was added last June, winning three handicaps from five starts, the last being the valuable Challenge Cup (7f, soft) at Ascot; ran right up to form on his stakes debut in a Saint-Cloud Group 3 (1m, soft) for seasonal return when a close runner-up; entitled to improve for that and top rated.

Three-time h'cap winner, including over C&D in final 2024 start; ran just three times last season; produced a smart display to win a 7f premier handicap at the Irish Champions meeting; towards rear throughout on comeback in a 7f Curragh Listed contest (soft to heavy); may be better suited by this ground but Tashakour looks like the yard's main hope.
