Curragh Race 6 - Heider Family Stables Gallinule Stakes (Group 3)

CAUSEWAY (2) can make it four in a row for Aidan O'Brien. He is the choice of Ryan Moore after a 2L victory in the Tetrarch Stakes over 1600m. Improvement expected up in trip. Main contender for O'Brien who dominates this race. Stablemate DROP DEAD GORGEOUS (9) warrants respect on just her third start. A latest 1.25L third in the G3 Athasi Stakes is promising while the increased distance may benefit. SHAIHAAN (4) deserves another chance. Disappointed in the Derby Trial but won a maiden over course and distance in good style. AMADEUS MOZART (1) is worth a market check. He is inexperienced but can be considered raised in standard.
