Race preview
OZYMANDIS was touched off in a similar contest over course and distance a month ago and can go one better. Ger Lyons' charge, who won a 7f maiden here in the spring, is 4lb higher but the horse just behind him in third overcame a similar hike next time out and the Brazen Beau gelding is relatively fresh after a light campaign. The topweight Zozimus achieved his only victory so far in a maiden here a year ago and was an excellent fourth in the English Cambridgeshire. He was disappointing last time but has to be respected on overall form. Himalayan Beauty got an 8lb hike for finishing midfield in a Listed race last month which won't help her chance but she ran well here in a maiden at two and scored on good ground at Gowran in the summer. Bonnyrigg could be fancied on his second at Leopardstown but appears held by the selection on collateral form after finishing third to Punk Poet here last week.
