Wednesday's winner at The Curragh was Saturn, the 5/4 favourite tracked the leaders early disputing the lead 1 1/2 furlongs out. He moved to the front soon after and despite being strongly pressed inside the final furlong he stayed on well just beating Tyson Fury by a short head. The other pick Air Force One was 8th in a race won by Kendall Roy who beat Majestic Beauty by 1/2 a length.
Seven races take place at Leopardstown on Thursday with 2 main events.
5.30: King George V Cup.
6: Portland: A useful colt who was a very good 4th behind Arabian Crown in the Group 3 classic trial at Sandown when last seen 41 days ago. He improved making headway under pressure a furlong out taking 4th close to home. He goes up in trip here and looks like the way to go as he attempts to pick up his 2nd career win.
6.30: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Glencairn Stakes.
5: Tarawa: A good filly who has been a course winner in her career. She was a little disappointing when 3rd behind Mutasarref in a listed race at Naas on her return 18 days ago but she should improve here going up in trip and is the one to beat.
