In depth

Verdict

Aidan O'Brien has four entries with Seamie Heffernan on board the Galileo filly ENNISTYMON, who is related to numerous winners. She got no sort of run in a Curragh maiden last summer, when stable-companion Love finished runner-up, and has three Group 1 entries. Unknown Pleasures was placed in a couple of Cork maidens before running reasonably well in a Curragh Group 3 and she should do better this season. Brinjal was odds-on when beaten at Dundalk but had excuses and is another likely improver while the Teofilo filly Tejano will have benefited from her run at Galway in October. Astadash is by Zoffany out of a mare who has produced winners with her first seven foals, including Group 1 winner La Collina.
