FormscanBy Gary Carson - CASTLE STAR was a touch unlucky on his debut at Cork a fortnight ago and may be able to go one better one. Fozzy Stack's charge missed the kick and was hampered leaving the stalls but still came to lead inside the final furlong. Greenness may have cost him in the closing stages as he was pipped at the line in a tight finish. With that run under his belt, and stepping up in trip now, he is fancied to open his account. Gaire Os Ard was also second on her debut when chasing home impressive winner Tenebrism at Naas and is another that has to be respected given that she has racecourse experience. Obviously the Ballydoyle newcomer Glounthaune is one to note in the market. The Kodiac colt cost 350,000 guineas as a yearling and is from the family of Irish Derby winner Santiago.
