Curragh Race 7 - Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby (Group 1)
BENVENUTO CELLINI (2) Dominant winner by 4 1/4L last run at Chester and showing consistent performance in races. Up against a more competitive field. Don't overlook. CHRISTMAS DAY (4) Good win by 2 3/4L last time at Epsom but matched against a stronger field. Has run into the money 3 from 3 attempts this campaign. Include in chances. RAAHEEB (7) Resumes after a break. Bolted in when winning by 3 1/4L last run at Sandown but racing in stronger company. Looks set to run a place. PIERRE BONNARD (6) Came in 7th last time at Epsom but has the ideal draw. Testing ability against stronger contenders. One to watch closely and a legitimate knockout hope.

Won with a leg in the air by 3 1/4L last start at Gowran Park but up against a higher level of opposition. Will need a big effort to win this.

Finished 3rd last time at Epsom and promising career start. Looking sharp on the track since returning from a spell but taking on stronger rivals. Likely to get back. Place at best.

In the money when 3rd last run around here and has a good draw. Producing consistent results since returning from a spell but challenged by more formidable competitors. Will need to find a new peak.
