Irish 1000 Guineas: Judge features among acceptors

Just The Judge, narrowly denied by Sky Lantern in the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket, is among 18 remaining entries in the Irish equivalent at the Curragh on Sunday...

Trained by Charlie Hills, the filly lost her unbeaten record at Newmarket and connections are keen to stick to a mile for now.

Big Break missed Newmarket on account of the fast ground, with trainer Dermot Weld hoping there is rain in the build-up to the Irish Classic.

Aidan O'Brien's Moth, who caught the eye when running on into third at Newmarket and has been strongly fancied for the Oaks at Epsom, is still in the shake-up for the Guineas.

O'Brien's Snow Queen also stayed on pleasingly into fifth and may also run along with stablemates Just Pretending and Hanky Panky.

Richard Hannon's Maureen was just behind Snow Queen in sixth, while the Eddie Lynam-trained Viztoria is also in the frame but has never competed over a mile.

Newmarket Guineas eighth Masarah remains in the hunt for the Clive Brittain team, with the Elaine Burke-trained Exactement still entered.

John Oxx has left in What Style and Harasiya, with Andy Oliver having supplemented Dubaya, who could join stablemate Uleavemebreathless.

Jim Bolger also has a couple in contention in Rehn's Nest and Bunairgead.

Mizzava and Harpist complete the list ahead of Friday's declaration stage.
