15:10 Curragh The Kilboy Estate Stakes is a Group 2 contest for fillies ran over 1m1f. The in-form Jim Bolger team can land this with their talented four-year-old Turret Rocks. The horse ran a cracker over this course two weeks ago in the Group 1 Pretty Polly Stakes to finish third at long odds behind Nezwaah, and she shaped as though the furlong less today will be right up her street. She sets a clear standard here and with the yard in flying form over the past few weeks, she gets the nod to land this today. Tony Martin’s Laganore rates the main danger after running a decent race herself in that same race as the selection, she does have a bit to do to turn that form around, but she is most likely to take advantage if the selection fails to fire. TURRET ROCKS (WIN) – NAP
15:45 Curragh All eyes will be on the boys in blue for this Group 2 contest ran over 7f. The talented Dutch Connection bids to give Godolphin the victory in this race with James Doyle making the trip for the ride suggesting he will give a solid performance, but it is another British raider who may take all the beating. Ed Walker’s Stormy Atlantic looks the one to be on here and can rediscover the best of last season’s form here today. The four-year-old has been campaigned at the very highest level already in his career and has gone close in Group 1 company last term, He has already been denied narrowly twice this term at Listed level either side of a long fruitless trek to Hong Kong. Last time out he was only just held off by Morando at Windsor. That defeat will have him spot on here and he gets the nod to land the spoils here today. STORMY ATLANTIC (WIN)
