FormscanBy Michael Graham - Aidan O'Brien's PIERRE BONNARD can improve upon an opening fourth at Leopardstown. It looked a fair maiden and the horse a place in front of him in third (stablemate Montreal) came out and hacked up by eight lengths in another maiden at Leopardstown. O'Brien also saddles debutant King Of Sparta who warrants automatic respect as a half-brother to a double Oaks winner. Prospect Thunder couldn't really land a blow when third of four in a Group 3 at Leopardstown, but that was his first start. He could appreciate these calmer waters. Galway third Nazario was cut down in the closing stages over that stiff 7f and comes into the reckoning, while Daary and Masaban are others that could get involved.
