Curragh Race 1 - Keadeen Hotel Irish European Breeders Fund Mdn
Aidan O'Brien appears to have a strong hand with three interesting newcomers and it is worth noting that Ryan Moore has chosen to ride ABRAHAM LINCOLN (1). By Wootton Bassett this expensive purchase as a yearling is sure to take high rank at Ballydoyle. HAFFNER (4) hails from a fine US family and the dam is a close relation to this stables superstar stayer Order Of St George. Consider. MAN'S BEST FRIEND (7) doesn't have as flashy a pedigree as his stablemate but still must be feared from this yard. TREAN (10) ran well on debut to finish third at Fairyhouse and won't be far away. Rates very highly.

Was well-supported at debut, 3rd of 17 at Fairyhouse on June 12 over 1207m, 1.0 len behind Switching Sides with 57.5kg at $3. Should come on following that hit-out and looks a great chance to break through.
