Saturday's only winner came at Naas where Caroline Street sat 7th at halfway making headway from 2 out. The 11/2 shot made further progress between horses to lead entering the final furlong she kept on well in the closing stages beating Lumiere Rock by 1/2 a length. It was a poor day elsewhere with Something Nice finishing 9th and Dame Rapide coming 8th.
An 8 race card takes place at Leopardstown on Sunday with 3 topping the bill.
2.15: Cornelscourt Stakes (Group 3)
1: American Sonja: A promising horse who picked up her career best win at Gowran Park 18 days ago. She went clear inside the final furlong comfortably coming home by 3 1/4 lengths. Another bold show is likely and she can complete a hat-trick here.
2.50: Amethyst Stakes (Group 3)
3: New Energy: A smart horse who ran well in group company last season including a 3rd in the Irish 2,000 Guineas. He was second behind Kinross in the Park Stakes at Doncaster before finishing a respectable 6th in the Prix De La Foret at Longchamp when last seen in October. This looks like a good race to make his reappearance and he is the one to beat.
3.25: Derby Trial Stakes (Group 3)
8: Up And Under: Was a good second behind White Birch in the Ballysax Stakes over course and distance 35 days ago. With plenty more to come this well-bred colt can go one better here.
