Luke Morris rides Caspian Prince

Caspian Prince is an interesting British raider in the Dundalk Stadium Race, the opening event on Sunday's card at the all-weather venue.
Winner of the Dash at Epsom back in June, Tony Carroll's sprinter makes a second trip to Ireland this time after being beaten just a length in the Rockingham at the Curragh in July.
He was most recently seen finishing last of 15 runners in a Goodwood Group Two but his rating of 105 ensures he carries top weight under Luke Morris in this five-furlong event.
Jim Bolger 's Flight Risk is an interesting contender after finishing fourth in Group Three company last time, while Ger Lyons fields Artistic Integrity.
Lyons' Dandyleekie is the top-rated runner in the Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Premier Nursery Handicap, with the Dandy Man colt having placed behind the likes of Lucida and Dick Whittington already this term.
Dermot Weld fields Spryt in that race but Notable Graduate may be his best chance of a winner under top weight in the Crowne Plaza Race & Stay Handicap.
Jane Foley sends two for the Crowne Plaza Hotel Handicap, with last-time-out winner Surburban Sky clearly the stable's leading hope.
He triumphed by three and a quarter lengths at Cork last time and will have Ana O'Brien back on board, although she will be taking 7lb off this time. The Dancing Lord hit the bar when second at the Curragh and he goes again in the second division of the Friday Horse Racing Returns 26th September Handicap, while Division One is topped by Hilary who was a winner at Bellewstown last time.
