20:10 Rockshore Refreshingly Irish Race

Race preview

STRATUM gets a tentative vote with the weights in his favour. The Willie Mullins-trained gelding won the Queen Alexandra at Royal Ascot last year but faded inside the final furlong in this year's renewal of that stamina test behind Dawn Rising. The selection now meets that rival on 10lb better terms as he bids to overturn a six-length deficit and is fitted with cheekpieces for the first time. Dawn Rising was a Grade 3 winner over hurdles last season and warmed up for that Ascot win when placed in the Group 3 Saval Beg Levmoss Stakes at Leopardstown. Shanroe has been a great servant to connections but unfortunately unseated his rider early on at Limerick last time, while Mt Leinster hasn't run on the Flat in nearly two years and has been campaigned over fences since.
