Elzaamone ran in a Listed race at Naas last week but was clearly out of his depth. Kevin Prendergast’s newcomer Mudawy is by Dark Angel so is worth a market check, though has already been gelded. Jessica Harrington has inherited Kells from Ballydoyle but PAPA BEAR looks to be the stable’s first string and he should take all the beating if reproducing the form of his second at the Curragh last summer. Koolasice looks the danger on paper ahead of Ecclesiastical and Deadwood.
