Curragh Race 8 - Hill Of Allen Stud Hcp
VANIR (2) broke her maiden by 1L over 2414m at Fairyhouse most recently. Lightly raced and with Ben Coen retained she has more to offer. Leading contender. YOUSAYNOTHINGATALL (3) finished 11L third tackling 2414m at Leopardstown last time. This four-runner field gives her a realistic winning chance. Major player. GENCHEV (1) won at Navan before finishing 21L away in seventeenth attempting 2414m at Royal Ascot on latest appearance. Class relief may revive him. Makes appeal. NOBLE HONOUR (4) continued his consistent form with a 3.5L second contesting 2011m at Fairyhouse when last seen. The longer trip is a query but he arrives in good condition. Cannot be discounted.

Returns from a 30-day let-up. Most recently 17th of 19 at Ascot KING GEORGE V STAKES on June 18 over 2414m, 21 len behind Enceladus with 55.5kg at $41. The race before that won by 0.5 len at Navan May 16 over 2011m defeating Reynir carrying 61kg at $2.30. Rates highly and deserves another chance.

Recent form sound. Returns from a 44-day let-up. Last start ran second last in a small field at Leopardstown in the LR KING GEORGE V CUP on June 4 over 2414m, on a slow track; 11 len behind Endorsement carrying 57kg at $8.50. The run before that scored a big 5 len win at Cork May 3 over 2112m on a soft track defeating Miss Romagna carrying 58.5kg at $2. Sure to go close.
