CIRCUS RING makes a quick reappearance after a promising debut behind odds-on stable companion Courage Under Fire at Naas last week. He'll have come on a bundle for the experience and can take this for Ballydoyle, who are also represented by Spirit of Valor. The son of War Front cost $850,000 and is a half-brother to three winners in the USA. Miss Qatar hasn't had much luck in-running in both starts to date and is better than her form figures imply while John Honeyman was in the lead at this trip when tackling 7f at Dundalk. Delta Dreamer is the third foal of a mare who has already produced winners with her first two and the daughter of Oasis Dream is one to keep a close eye on.
