Curragh Race 3

Mitsubishi Electric Curragh Irish European Breeders Fund Curragh Stakes (Listed)

Stake: $90,994

KANSAS (2) has not missed the frame in five career starts. Opened his account with 0.5L victory beating JACK THE BACHELOR (1) at Tipperary last month. The latter reversed placings securing a comfortable 1L win at Cork in latest however the former is preferred with Ryan Moore in the saddle for the first time. IPANEMA QUEEN (6) delivered a commanding 5L winning debut at the course. Latest second of seven effort in a Listed contest at Naas puts her thereabouts. ROSIE FRITH (7) holds place chances.

Racing well recently. At the latest run 2nd in a small field at Cork on July 25 over 1005m, 1.3 len behind Jack The Bachelor with 62kg at $2.30. The race before that favourite; won by 0.5 len at Tipperary July 2 over 1005m defeating Jack The Bachelor with 60.5kg at $1.70. Expected to go well again.
