FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - SUPASUNDAE didn’t take up a recent engagement at Kilbeggan as the going wasn’t deemed suitable. The Galileo gelding, an eight time winner, three of which were recorded at the highest level over hurdles, makes his Flat debut now at the age of ten. He did win a couple of bumpers at the start of his career and his class might see him through here. Trainer Jessica Harrington recently described the selection as “an ordinary horse now,” but he’s still a huge fish in this sort of pond. The fascinating one amongst the opposition is Accompanied. We all remember Accompanied’s dam, Unaccompanied, and this Distorted Humor gelding is her first foal. Unaccompanied won between a mile and a mile and six, including at Listed level on the Flat. She was a very smart two mile hurdle victor (twice in Grade Ones). This is the family of Irish 1,000 Guineas winner Trusted Partner. Accompanied missed an intended appearance at Fairyhouse in mid-June and Derek O’Connor takes the reins now for his debut. Coincidentally his dam won at this venue.
