Derrinstown Stud are sponsoring the apprentice race and it may provide the bet of the evening in the Dermot Weld-trained Suez Tornado, who certainly caused a big shock at Killarney last week when upsetting the odds-on favourite Shamneez.

Peter Chapple-Hyam has made three £3,000 second entries for the Group One Moyglare Stud Stakes at the Curragh on September 8th. Crystal Crossing, who broke the two-year-old course record when winning a listed race at Newbury last Saturday, heads the trio. China Girl and Bluey Green are the other two.
