    I notice that he is entered over 10 furlongs in a listed race at the Curragh on Sunday.
    Has anyone got any news on how he has been working etc.?

    It is a entry that is it.

    AOB said that he may run. EVERYTHING WORKS GREAT THEIR COGGY HAHA.

    Be interesting to see if he retrains even a little bit of ability

    Judged on past form, this race won’t tell us much. O’Brien did win this race with Dylan Thomas in 2007, but he’s also had four beaten favourites in it since 2005, including Acropolis at 4/7 and Fame And Glory last year at 2/5.

    On that evidence, whatever SNA does here, he’s highly likely to improve on it significantly in subsquent runs.

    Will be great to see him back in action.

    Just hope he’s grown because last year he looked like a pony compared to his 2000 Guineas rivals.

    I think he retains ability. He was beaten less than 4 lengths in a race on the short side for him by 5 horses, 4 had already had a run and 3 of them turned out to be very very good milers.

    RVW and Mastercraftsman were actual milers and didn’t fare any better in their guineas and that (for milers) was a much weaker race.

    He’ll win another group 1, I’m sure of it.
