Well-punted China One delivers
China One was bred by Miss Kirsten Rausing and the Niarchos Family and he passed through the sales ring three times, for modest sums on each occasion, most recently for 11,500 Euros at Goresbridge in May 2011. Odds compilers saw fit to put a 10/1 beside the now three-year-old's name this morning for the Navan Lock & Key Maiden – he went off at 9/4 and he got the job done by two and a quarter lengths under Chris Hayes at Dundalk.

Ursa Major has progressed from Day One and keeps improving. He could go for a Listed race now and depending on how he gets on, maybe a Group 3 after that.
Thomas Carmody
His run here the last day was very pleasing. He does nothing at home, he is very laid back. Tonight was a bonus and we will see where he goes now. We will step him up to a mile and a half.
