FormscanBy Mark Nunan - This looks a good opportunity for Irish 2,000 Guineas sixth SINAWANN. Michael Halford’s colt won a Curragh maiden last year and was second in a Group 2 over this course and distance behind Mogul. The form of the Irish Guineas hasn’t worked out that well so far, but the selection did have Jersey Stakes runner-up Monarch Of Egypt a place behind him that day. Gowran handicap winner So Suave is a progressive type (Celtic High King behind in fourth but 10lbs better off) but is up in grade here, while New World Tapestry got a hike in the ratings for his Royal Ascot fifth to Derby contender Russian Emperor and has to prove that he’s worthy of his new three figure mark.
For three years old colts and geldings only Weights - 9st 5lbs; Penalties - Of a Group 2 or a Group 1 race 3lb extra
