FormscanBy Tom Weekes - POWERFUL NATION debuts on the all-weather but is a fast-ground type so is likely to be suited by this surface and has form claims. A speedy sprinter, he finished second at Listed level at Tipperary in July, where he comfortably beat Lady With The Lamp into sixth. Shamrock Breeze is a similarly fast type and has been placed in three Listed races but, notably, has been beaten by the selection twice and has 2.75 lengths to find with him on Tipperary form. Saratoga Special, in turn, finished 5.25 lengths ahead of Shamrock Breeze last month and is now also 5lb better off. However, she disappointed when narrowly failing to win a Navan maiden 22 days ago, with the runner-up being well defeated subsequently.

Quotes on Powerful Nation (IRE)
I think he is a very good horse and he idled in front. I'll get him another run before going for the Windsor Castle (Royal Ascot), as he was doing nothing only looked around. I was hearing so many things coming down here, I thought I was actually running in the Windsor Castle! . He had 9st6lb on his back and was giving a stone-and-a-half to some, so he is a fair horse. He was a bit green the last day, I think today's race was a proper one and I don't think ground is an issue for him. Kevin Walsh bred him, owns him with his sons and is from over the road in Dualla. Kevin has had horses with me for 10 years and while this is his best horse, he is lucky. I was with him at Goresbridge (in 2017) where we bought this lame filly by Society Rock for just €3,000 but she was from a really good family and she bred Powerful Nation.After Powerful Nation (IRE) finished 1st at Cork on Tue, 21st May 2024 5f Flat Maiden Good to Yielding

Quotes on Amazing Athena (IRE)
She ran so bad first time out but she was very green, never got into the race and Ben said she was all over the place,. Her work had been consistently good and I was expecting a bit better so I was coming here hoping today. Fast ground and five furlongs really suits her. We think she's a nice filly and she's sure to improve with a bit of racing as well. She'll probably go for a winners of one or a stakes race now. She has a nice pedigree, her half-sister (Basil Martini) is a Group 3 winner so we'll try and do something similar with her.After Amazing Athena (IRE) finished 1st at Naas on Sat, 6th Jul 2024 5f Flat Maiden Good
