FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Although yet to race on the all-weather, BRIGHT STRIPES sets a fair standard in this Listed contest. Group 2 placed as a juvenile last season, the Andy Oliver-trained colt won at this grade at the Curragh earlier in the campaign, while he was far from disgraced in stronger company at Leopardstown on Champions Weekend. Bellezza proved rather disappointing at the Curragh earlier this month but that was almost certainly not her true form. On earlier efforts, the Ger Lyons-trained filly would hold every chance in a race such as this. Leopardstown maiden winner Platoon takes a steep rise in class here but the Aidan O'Brien-trained colt is clearly thought capable of making his presence felt in what is just his second career start.

Quotes on Star Harbour (IRE)
He's lazy and it was totally an inadequate trip for him,. We had him in Chester at the weekend, but the ground went against him for that Listed race. We threw him into this race when it was small entries, it was a bit of an afterthought. The conditions suited, but we knew it was a bit short. Adam got after him early doors and he gave him a good ride. He just got there and it's great for the lads, he's been a great money-spinner for them. He wasn't a cheap horse when we bought him, but the fun they've got out of him has been unreal. That's his third win of the year and he had a very good run the last day at Dundalk carrying a lot of weight. He'll probably go back for the Diamond Stakes there in two weeks time. We might give him a break after that. We've threatened to run him over hurdles a couple of times - we pulled him out at Down Royal because of the ground, but at some stage he will make another appearance over hurdles. He'll want nice autumn or spring ground.

Quotes on Take Heart (IRE)
Ben doesn't do 8-10 very often but he was keen to ride him,. He said he gave him a good feel the last day, he probably should have won but he just didn't get enough room at the right time. He's a fine big horse that doesn't do much at home, but when he comes to the track you can't fault his form. He's one of those big slow developers and I think he'll make up into a premier handicap horse the way he is going. He's only had a few runs so he should keep improving. I put him in the big mile-and-a-quarter handicap on Champions Weekend, the Northfields. Whether it's too early for him or not, I'm not sure and we'll see what Barry Irwin wants to do.

Quotes on Chantilly (IRE)
We liked him last year but he never won,. Ryan thought he could be a horse for a handicap in Ascot and he should get into one of those three-year-old races now. I’d say he definitely wants better ground. He’s a good mover, a long striding horse.

Quotes on Fiver Friday (IRE)
She’d done all her winning before in Scotland and just could never get her head in front here. The last day in Down Royal it turned out she was in season. We knew she handled the course here from her maiden form (third on debut) and for her to get her head in front in Ireland is brilliant. They went plenty hard early on to set it up for her and Wayne (Hassett) used his head. He said she loved the hill as well and maybe that’s her trip.

Quotes on Platoon (IRE)
He's a very straightforward horse and he's just taken time to come to hand. . He's been coming along nicely in the past couple of weeks and we felt this was a nice race to start him in. The trip is his absolute minimum. . Probably the best part of the race was the gallop out, Jack couldn't pull him up at the line. . He's a horse that will get further, he has a nice bit of class and he'll come on a lot physically. . There is a winners' race for him in September or we could look at something like the Listowel Stakes. The Diamond Stakes in Dundalk could also suit him over an extended ten furlongs. . He's a horse to look forward to for the back-end and I think he'll definitely make up into a stakes horse.

Quotes on Bellezza (IRE)
She’s a lovely filly and a half-sister to Tough Talk that runs in the next,. We’ve liked her from day one and you can see she is a beautiful individual. We have just decided to take our time as much as we can. I like her as much as I like any horse in the yard. When I get fillies from that owner I would always like to try and win their own race. I’m hoping she’s good enough and it’s first box ticked. That’s where we hope to end up. She got a bit lost mid-div but Colin cuddles them and lets them find their feet. It is not all about the first day, that’s only the first step where we want to go. Mine will always improve. They are never away out of the yard, never on grass until they come here today. They can get stage fright or they can win like that. Hopefully she will improve and if she does she will be a Stakes filly. She is in the Debutante which closed yesterday but I’ll be dreaming of the Moyglare for obvious reasons.

Quotes on Madam Celeste (IRE)
Ger (Lyons) is adamant to get these two-year-olds out for a run before he puts them away, so they know their job for next year. The penny was only dropping at the backend of the turf season. Obviously, she is a Galileo and is telling us that she wants nice ground and this is the first mile race that has come up for fillies, so we had to grab it with two hands. Win, lose or draw, she was going for a good break after tonight. We are delighted to tick the box and she will have a good break. She will come back mid-spring onwards hopefully for a nice campaign. She is entered in the Irish Oaks and she has the breeding for a mile and a-half, She has got that out of the way and I'd say she is a mile and a-quarter filly and she'll tell us what she wants to do then. She showed a bit of class - Colin (Keane) loved her the way she jumped. She was very, very green, but he said he was always confident that she was going to win because she was giving him that willing feeling. We brought her here early and put her in the parade ring and brought her onto the track, and the penny drops very quickly. When she came into the parade ring for the real deal, she knew what she was there for. She's a quick learner.
