Curragh Race 6 - Dubai Duty Free Celebration Stakes (Listed)
The classy ALCANTOR (1) can register a first success for Joseph O'Brien. Won three times at G3 level in France. Only sixth in G3 Tattenham Corner Stakes tackling 1400m at Epsom twenty two days ago. Different test here looks more suitable. Likely to progress and is the one to beat. TOKENOMICS (3) arrives after a 1.25L second in the Listed Amethyst Stakes at Leopardstown. Given a similar opportunity. Respect. ZODIAC BEAR (4) attempts the 1600m journey for the first time. Must be a key player after back-to-back G3 seconds. DUCKADILLY (5) was a Listed winner over the distance last time and warrants thought. COWARDOFTHECOUNTY (2) managed to win latest and could improve further.
