Race preview
EARL OF TYRONE can get off the mark on his second start for the Paddy Twomey yard. A frustrating sort to date, he often promises more than he delivers despite having plenty of ability. In his defence, the four-year-old didn't get the clearest of runs on his recent stable debut and battled on well to finish a respectable third. He is beginning to run out of excuses at this stage, so anything other than a win here will leave connections scratching their heads. Mount Brown makes his first start on the flat having already shown ability over hurdles. With a rating of 118 in that discipline, he is entitled to be very competitive in a race of this nature. Analytics is interesting if only for the fact that Ger Lyons has kept her in training as a four-year-old. She must be showing something at home. Cleopatra's Needle and Cristel Clere boast ratings that would be good enough to win an ordinary country maiden.
