Curragh

Today, June 29, 2025Flat6f

Last year's winner MY MATE ALFIE was highly progressive last season and wasn't seen to best effect when caught wide in the Group 2 Greelands Stakes at this track last month. He may be able to reverse the form with Vespertilio and Big Gossey, who finished ahead of him that day and can both run well again. Songhai may prove best of the rest in a highly competitive renewal, having caught the eye when a clear runner-up in a 5f listed race last time.

    Verdict
    Won this in 2024. Improved throughout last season, defying a penalty in a Naas listed event and was far from disgraced behind a progressive sort in a similar event there (5f) on reappearance. Poorly drawn and caught wide in a Group 2 here last time and remains one to be interested in down in class.

    Verdict
    Useful juvenile (won Group 2 Debutante Stakes at this track) and has performed creditably at listed/Group 3 level this season, finished ¾-length fourth of 9 to James's Delight in Group 2 Greenlands Stakes (10/1) at this C&D (good) 36 days ago. Should be in the mix again.

    Verdict
    Ran right up to his best when an unlucky third in Group 2 Greenlands Stakes at this C&D (good, 33/1) 36 days ago, finishing best and likely would have won with a clearer passage. Should run well again.

    Verdict
    Has built up an impressive record of four wins from 6 starts, the latest victory a career best when winning a 6f conditions race at Fairyhouse (6f, good) 23 days ago by 2½ lengths from Tango Flare, won easily. Has earned a crack at something better and we may not have seen the best of him yet.

    Verdict
    €2,200,000 yearling, Siyouni colt. Needed debut run at York last year and returning from a year off, showed a good turn of foot over 5f at Navan when landing a 10-runner maiden last month. Form has taken a few knocks but he remains open to progress stepping back up in trip.

    Verdict
    Debut winner at Dundalk in February and has quickly developed into a useful performer. Solid form when third in a 5.5f listed race at Cork prior to shaping well over the minimum trip at the same course earlier this month when a clear second in a listed race. One to be interested in upped to 6f.

    Verdict
    Career best when third in an Ascot Group 3 in October but has underperformed in two starts since, the latest on reappearance when ¾ lengths sixth of 7 to Fair Angellica in listed race at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) 36 days ago. Not ruled out if back to something like his best.

    Verdict
    Promising C&D maiden winner last season. Has improved as a 3-y-o and possibly had his stamina stretched over 7f in soft ground in Group 3 Ballycorus Stakes at Leopardstown (7.2f, soft, 13/2) 17 days ago. Not ruled out on his return to sprinting.

    Verdict
    Useful filly. C&D winner was unsuited by the emphasis on speed when 3½ lengths fifth of 8 to Powerful Nation in listed race at Cork (5f, good to soft, 10/1) 16 days ago. Step up to 6f should suit but still has a bit to find on form.

    Verdict
    Smart sprinter at best but only raced three times since finishing second in the Flying Five here in September 2022. Satisfactory return to action on first outing since leaving P. Twomey(following 12 months off) when third in a 5f Cork listed race. Will need to improve in a deeper race.

    Verdict
    Placed in a valuable 25-runner handicap here last season and has performed respectably on two starts this season and probably bumped into a smart one when runner-up in a 3-runner race at Fairyhouse (6f, good, 9/4) 23 days ago. Needs to improve with visor now refitted.

    Verdict
    Impressive winner of 7f Cork listed race in August and strong in the betting dropped to sprinting on final run of last season when creditable 1¾ lengths fourth of 11 in Renaissance Stakes at this C&D last September, faring best of those held up having been slow away. Remains unexposed on her return.
