Make it Monsieur

FROM the Irish Derby at the Curragh to the moderate Londis Kinsella's Of Killeens Maiden at Wexford is the path which Monsieur Henri will travel this evening.

John Hayden's colt will arrive at Wexford on the back of a career-best effort in the premier Irish classic and has obvious prospects of enjoying a first ever success.

At the Curragh, he finished 11th of 13 behind the hugely impressive Dylan Thomas, beaten around 15 lengths. Rated 79 then, the son of Chester House finished within three parts of a length of Puerto Rico (109) and was two and a half lengths in front of Cougar Bay
