Chemistry is all the rage for the Visit Irish National Stud Irish EBF Maiden (4.30) at the Curragh this afternoon with the Aidan O’Brien-trained colt expected to progress from his debut third at Naas last autumn.

The son of Kingman was available at evens overnight but is now a general 4/9 shot.

O’Brien and Ryan Moore are also expected to land the opening Nando Parrado Irish EBF Maiden at 1.35 with Igor Stravinsky

The juvenile is certainly bred for the job being by No Nay Never out of dual 1,000 Guineas winer Hermosa and has been supported from 9/4 into 6/4.

The Jessica Harrington-trained Heavenly Being is another to attract plenty of interest in the Download The New Tote App Rated Race with Shane Foley’s mount shortening from 9/1 into a general 4/1.
