- Drop in class for Fleet Review in Dash
Drop in class for Fleet Review in Dash

No less than four course and distance winners clash in the Listed Dubai Duty Free Creekside Dash Stakes over six furlongs at the Curragh on Saturday, in which Fleet Review could prevail.
Aidan O’Brien’s colt is two from three over this trip at Headquarters and should relish this drop in class.
He finished runner-up in a Group Three at Naas last month before running unplaced in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot last week.
This son of War Front is very much at home on quick ground.
Stablemate Intelligence Cross also has his sights lowered and rates a danger, along with Jim Bolger’s Smash Williams who was not too far behind the top-class Merchant Navy in the Greenlands Stakes in May.
American-bred St Patrick rsquo;s Day is a fascinating newcomer for O’Brien in the Listed Dubai Duty Free Millennium Millionaire Celebration Stakes.
The three-year-old colt is a brother of US Triple Crown winner American Pharoah and holds a clutch of Group-race entries.
He was due to make his debut in a Group Three at Leopardstown just over a fortnight ago but was withdrawn after getting upset in the stalls.
It will take a good performance to beat his five rivals who are all rated over 99. Dawn Delivers has been highly tried in Group company since winning her maiden at this track in July.
She could pick up a good pot in the Dubai Duty Free Full Of Surprises Summer Fillies Handicap.
The maiden that O’Brien’s All The King’s Men finished sixth in on debut has thrown up several winners and he might be next in the Dubai Duty Free Finest Surprise Irish EBF Maiden. Top Othe Ra showed his toughness in Leopardstown which will stand him in good stead for the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships Irish EBF Handicap over two miles.
