Leopardstown Race 3 - King George V Cup (Listed)
ACAPULCO BAY (1) rates highly eased in standard after being well held over 2011m attempting the G3 Derrinstown Stud Derby Trial at this venue last time. Leading contender advancing in distance. ZAHRANN (6) represents the main danger having produced a comfortable 7L success tackling a 2112m Cork contest most recently. AROUET (2) scored by 2L a 2112m event at Roscommon on latest appearance. Respect. ROCK OF CASHEL (3) can fill fourth spot.

Returns from a 31-day let-up. Last start 6th of 8 at Curragh in LR on May 5 over 1609m, 11 len behind Officer with 59.5kg at $23. The race before that second last in a small field at Newcastle All Weather in the LR Burradon Stakes on April 18 over 1609m, 4.5 len behind Glittering Legend with 59kg at $7.50. Better than that and worth following up.
