Gowran Park Race 1 - Irish Stallion Farms Ebf Mdn
A battle of the O'Brien family with Joseph responsible for three chances yet it is the Aidan runner ANTHONY OF LISBON (1) who makes plenty of appeal being a close relation to Beckford amongst other smart horses. The pick of the Joseph trio will be the Dylan Browne McMonagle ridden FOLSOM BLUES (3). Not disgraced on debut at the Curragh in May and will have learned plenty. Could prove hard to beat. The two newcomers from the yard are interesting with the Kingman son KING'S FURY (6) catching the eye on paper whilst WO WO NEVER (8) is a son of Wotton Bassett and might be more a long term project.

Jumped at very long odds at debut, second last of 11 at Listowel on May 31 over 1307m, 19 len behind The Scallionator carrying 54kg at $51. Hard to enthuse.

At debut, 3rd of 8 at Curragh on May 23 over 1207m, 2.75 len behind Sergei Diaghilev with 59.5kg at $5.50. Sure to come on from that run and appeals as one of the major players.

Was as a despised roughie at debut, ran last of 7 at Naas on May 9 over 1207m, 24 len behind Confucius carrying 60.5kg at $67. Doubt he will trouble these.

At debut, second last of 12 at Curragh on May 4 over 1207m, 7 len behind Immortal Guard with 57kg at $23. Better for that experience but happy enough to avoid.

Lining up for just third start. At very big odds at debut, ran last of 11 at Listowel on May 31 over 1307m, 49 len behind The Scallionator with 56kg at $81. Second-up ran last of 9 at Fairyhouse on June 5 over 1408m, 23 len behind Florida Bay with 57kg at $251. Likely to struggle again.
