Multiple Group One winner Starspangledbanner could attempt to get his career back on track in the www.bettor.com Flying Five Stakes at the Curragh on Sunday.

Having returned to training with Aidan O’Brien following a failed spell at stud, the six-year-old finished last of six on his return to competitive action on August 12.

As usual with an Irish Group sprint, there is plenty of British interest.

Roger Charlton’s consistent Definightly must carry a penalty if he runs while Kevin Ryan could be represented by Bajan Tryst.

Eton Rifles, Inxile, Noble Storm, Stepper Point and Boastful are also engaged.

Ron Harris’ speedy pair Judge ’N Jury and Secret Witness could also travel over again.

David Marnane’s Santo Padre, the David Wachman-trained Fire Lily, Mick Halford inmate Invincible Ash and Eddie Lynam’s Sole Power, who could run in the Nunthorpe on Friday at York, form the rest of the home defence among 18 remaining entries.
