2.35 Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden 1m 73yds

Ontario can extend Aidan O’Brien’s dominance in this event which he has won for the last five years in a row. After a respectable debut in the smart Naas maiden won by Lucky Vega, this Galileo colt passed the post in front in a Fairyhouse maiden early last month only to lose the race in the stewards’ room. The third has since reached the frame in a smart Leopardstown maiden which is encouraging.
