Successful over six furlongs at Dundalk yesterday, Tosca No Candis was winner number 13 of the season for Robson De Aguiar and he currently lies seventh in the trainers' list in terms of win and place prize money.

The Westmeath-based Brazilian has two entries for Saturday's Comer Group International Irish St Leger Trial at the Curragh and is planning to let both take their chance.

"I think they will both go to the Curragh next weekend.

"We gave them a little bit of a break and Dallas Star ran the other day (fifth in handicap company at Gowran Park) to get himself fit and ran well.

"Spicy Margarita (fourth in a one-mile Listed contest at the headquarters on Derby weekend) is well and hopefully she will get black type soon."
