Leopardstown Race 4 - Ballylinch Stud Red Rocks Stakes (Group 3) (Colts & Geldings)
DORSET (2) First up after a break. Fought on gamely when winning by 1/2L last start here and competing in a lower grade. Has early speed and positions nicely. Will go well. FLUSHING MEADOWS (3) Back from a 37 week spell. Finished 2nd last time at this venue and matched against less formidable competition. Promising career start. Hard to overlook. TROJAN WARRIOR (10) Fresh today. Showed promise when winning by 1 1/2L last time at Curragh and fitter for debut run. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Has some strong credentials in this race. GERYON (4) First up from a spell of 28 weeks. Nice run when 2nd last time at Curragh and matched against lesser competition. Good career start. Worth a ticket.

Back from a break of 35 weeks. Nice effort when winning by 1 1/2L last time at Curragh and competing in a less challenging grade. Can't entertain.

Back from a break. Was fighting out the finish when winning last start at this venue and stepping down to a lower level. Should be going forward early. Should put in a decent effort.

Back after a 28 week break. Competitive effort when 2nd last time at Curragh and facing weaker opposition. Honest performer putting a tidy record together. Do not dismiss entirely.

First up after 30 weeks and ran 2nd first up last preparation here. Facing a weaker group of contenders. Solid career start. Can find a nice position from the draw. Big improvement required to threaten these.
