Abbey could kick-off at the Curragh

ST NICHOLAS ABBEY and Unaccompanied are among a fascinating list of entries for the Geegeez.co.uk Alleged Stakes at the Curragh on Sunday.

Aidan O’Brien’s St Nicholas Abbey has not been seen in competitive action since letting down favourite backers in the 2000 Guineas almost a year ago, but did enjoy an unbeaten juvenile campaign in 2009.

Unaccompanied, trained by Dermot Weld, ran a mighty race to fill the runner-up spot behind Zarkandar in the Triumph Hurdle at Cheltenham earlier this month and could be in line for a return to the Flat.
