Cork Race 8 - Irish Stallion Farms EBF (C & G) Maiden
ATOMIC CITY (7) finished third both starts to date. Ran to a similar level of form both outings and now goes up in trip once again. Worth giving close consideration as could take plenty of beating. GAELIC DRILLS (8) as with many horses from this stable will be getting better with every start. Wasn't disgraced at Leopardstown and warrants thought as cannot be ruled out. Juddmonte are doubly represented in this maiden and perhaps the pick of them is ABBOTSFORD (5) who is well-bred and could prove capable of leaving the debut effort well behind. Second Juddmonte runner is AMRUM (6) who only debuted sixth and needs more.

Third race start. Promising on debut 3rd of 20 at Curragh on November 2 over 1609m, in the wet; 8 len behind James J Braddock carrying 60.5kg at $12. Went for a spell before returning 3rd of 8 at Curragh on April 3 over 1810m, 0.8 len behind Galileo Noir carrying 61kg at $4. Fitter and is a leading contender.

First-starter by Pinatubo out of Sidra. Prefer to let go without a strong market move.

Second-up. First start 11th of 16 at Curragh on October 16 over 1609m, 15 len behind Acclamatic carrying 58kg at $101. Went for a break before returning second last of 8 at this track on April 24 over 1609m, 13 len behind Tashakour with 61kg at $51. Doesn't offer much appeal.
