FormscanBy Mark Nunan - On the face of it, NEOLITHIC ran in the Gladness Stakes at the Curragh as a pacemaker but the Sioux Nation colt outran his odds, and high-profile stablemate Albert Einstein, to finish a creditable third in a strong field. He runs over the same trip and ground conditions are likely to be fairly similar so, even if his new mark may flatter him a little, is very much the one to beat. Controlled won a 5f maiden last year for Aidan O’Brien and got this trip well when a battling second to a well-regarded winner in the Madrid Handicap at Naas. Greek Mythology readily beat two previous winners on the all-weather in December and looks a nice prospect. %0A
