FormscanBy Alan Magee - MONASTERBOICE was a close third to Zaynab in a heavy ground maiden at the Curragh this spring that has worked out well since and the Noel Meade-trained gelding showed he’s equally effective on a sounder surface when beating all bar Il Pellegrino again over this trip at Limerick last time. Artful Approach is another consistent sort and drops back a bit in trip here, while No Knee Never and Four Blondes are others to consider. John Steinbeck is bred in the purple being by Dubawi and out of a Group 3 winning sister to a list of Group 1 winners including Gleneagles, while the Kingman filly Eshnunna is another newcomer to note.
