Curragh

Tomorrow, Flat1m6f
Verdict

High-class stayer SCANDINAVIA has strong claims to make it 8 wins on the bounce. Jan Brueghel should relish the step back up in distance and could make it a 1-2 for Aidan O'Brien, while Trustyourinstinct isn't one to underestimate following his stylish win in the Curragh Cup last time.

    Verdict
    High-class colt who pretty much completed his ascent to the top of the staying tree with a dominant victory in the Goodwood Cup (2m) last time. Drop back in trip unlikely to halt his remarkable winning sequence.

    Verdict
    Produced a career best when outstaying Calandagan in the 2025 Coronation Cup last season. Again looked ready for a return to this sort of trip (2-2 in races beyond 1½m) when 3¼ lengths fourth in Hardwicke at Royal Ascot latest. May follow home his better-fancied stablemate, if back to his best.

    Verdict
    Smart son of Churchill who showed a fine turn of foot to land the Curragh Cup over C&D last time, deserving extra credit for overcoming a pace bias. He's a speedier type than Scandinavia/Jan Brueghel, and it'll be no surprise if he gives them a fright.

    Verdict
    Finished 3 lengths behind Caballo de Mar in the Group 1 Cadran last October. At least as good as ever when scooting clear to land Group 3 at the Curragh on return. That form still some way below that of his classier stablemates, though, and he's probably a pacemaker here.

    Verdict
    Best effort when third in Group 2 Great Voltigeur last summer. Not far off that form 2 of his 3 starts this season, aided by the run of the race when 1¾ lengths third in Silver Cup on return to York in July. Since gelded but will surely find this much tougher.

    Verdict
    Won Group 3 trial over C&D before underperforming in the 2025 renewal of this race. Only 7¼ lengths third in this year's corresponding Irish St Leger Trial and likely faces a stiff task.

    Verdict
    Smart Group 2 winner over 15f in France last year. Cheekpieces go on first time having failed to fire in 3 starts this season. Full-scale revival more likely to come when returned to calmer waters/softer ground.
