Cool Clarity earned her place in the Entenmann's Irish 1,000 Guineas line-up after taking the Entrepreneur EBF Athasi Stakes in fine style, the highlight of a treble for Dermot Weld and Pat Smullen.
The Indian Ridge filly cruised to the front well over a furlong out, and quickly drew clear to beat the well-backed Rose Gypsy (10/1 to 6/1) by 3L.
'She's only coming in her coat, and settled the race in a few strides like a good horse should. She will go for the Irish Guineas', said Weld of his 300th winner at the Curragh.
Muakaad was equally impressive when earlier booking his place in the Tattersalls Gold Cup by justifying 11/10 favouritism in the Mooresbridge Stakes.
'He's a proper horse' declared Weld after the four-year-old was also produced with a smooth challenge, leading a furlong out before quickening clear to beat Bach by 3 1/2L.
'The Tattersalls Gold Cup is his next objective, and he will give a good account of himself. A mile and a quarter is his trip', added the master of Rosewell House.
Media Puzzle completed the Weld/Smullen treble in the 1m6f finale, quickening from the front early in the straight to beat odds-on Ancelin by 1 1/2L.
'The Saval Beg Stakes at Leopardstown will be his next race, and we will see then about the Ascot Gold Cup', said Weld.
Aidan O'Brien landed the Tetrarch Stakes for the third time in five years but it was complete outsider Modigliani who upset 2/5 stablemate Mozart in this Group 3 race.
Paul Scallan made all on the Danzig colt, keeping on gamely to hold off Scarlet Velvet and Mozart, with just 2L covering the five runners.
'Mozart has been working exceptional at home. Michael (Kinane) said he gave a big heave, and may still have needed the run', said O'Brien.
He added: 'Modigliani put on 25 kilos over the winter, and we have always thought he was a good horse'.
Tendulkar got the afternoon off to a good start for the O'Brien/Kinane team when quickening up well inside the final furlong to beat fellow newcomer Keepers Hill by 2L in the 2yo maiden.
'He is a smart colt, and has plenty of speed', said O'Brien, who added: 'He can go anywhere!' when asked if the son of Spinning World would be on his Royal Ascot team.
Freud completed a treble for the Ballydoyle yard when landing some hefty wagers - evens to 2/5 - in the mile maiden.
The full-brother to Giant's Causeway, blinkered for the first time, made smooth headway to lead inside the final furlong for a comfortable 1 1/2L verdict over Julie Jalouse.
'He needs to be produced with a late challenge, and will go for the Irish 2,000 Guineas', said O'Brien.
