Trainer Ken Condon is aiming lightly-raced filly Montebell at the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Give Thanks Stakes at Cork next month.

The daughter of Dylan Thomas only made her racecourse debut in April and has shown plenty of promise in three starts in four weeks.

She was second to subsequent Curragh Cup winner Hartani at Tipperary on her last outing in late May.

Curragh-based Condon said: "Hartani has franked the form and I think he improved an awful lot from that run at Tipperary.

"She had three runs pretty close together so we gave her a little break and she's back training and cantering away.

"We are hoping to run her in the Give Thanks Stakes at Cork on August 5."
