"We have him entered for the Irish Lincoln next week at the Curragh,” said Thorne. "Colin Keane has been booked to ride him. Three-Pronged Attack on the Irish Lincolnshire "He had a lovely gallop around Leopardstown during the week, so he will be ready to start. He’s a big unit and we have him as ready as we can have him. "He seems to have the profile for the race. "He won his maiden last year on soft ground, around Cork. He is still very lightly raced, but is a Cambridgeshire winner. "He's got a nice profile and we gave plenty of money for him. "We have a couple of other bullets to fire, Pink Oxalis and Far From Dandy. “They are fit - the grey filly (Pink Oxalis) had a prep run up here a couple of weeks ago and Far From Dandy is fit from the all-weather as well. "Hoping to run all three." (Michael Graham)
