Classic-winning trainer George Boughey could launch an international raid on Saturday’s Paddy Power Irish Lincolnshire at The Curragh with Totally Charming, who has halved in price from his opening odds with Paddy Power and is the clear favourite.
The five-year-old, who also has an entry in the English Lincoln for which he has a chance, was last seen in action when easily scooping a Doncaster handicap under champion jockey Ryan Moore and completing his fourth win of the campaign.
Paddy Power spokesman Paul Binfield said: “I believe Totally Charming was due to work this morning although I have no idea how he worked, but he has been well supported and it looks like he will go for the Paddy Power Irish Lincolnshire rather than Doncaster.”
Meanwhile, the Tracey Collins and Michael Halford-trained Cosmic Vega will bid to give the duo, who teamed up earlier this month, their first big-race success on Saturday.
He was also a winner on his last start when proving three-quarters of a length too powerful for Emporio, who reopposes, in a race run over a mile on heavy ground at Naas in November.
Halford told Paddy Power News: “The Paddy Power Irish Lincolnshire is the plan – we’re very happy with him and he has wintered well and has been training well. The ground is the key as he handles testing ground and I wouldn’t think we’ll step him up further later – a mile looks a good trip for him.
“We’ll see what this race tells us – he’s crept up the handicap, the ground will have a big say and he’ll probably have a Gladness Stakes entry, but we’ll get this race out of the way first.
“This race has been the target all winter and we’ve been training him for it. He’s as well and as good as he can be without having had a run, the draw will have a big say, but it’s a Lincoln with horses having their first runs and a lot will depend on how forward they are or not.
“We’re hoping that he gives a good account of himself and he’s a very straightforward horse.”
Asked how the new partnership with Tracey was coming along, he enthused: “We’ve settled in very well and the partnership began on 1st March officially. It’s working out really well, we’ve been friends for a long time and we’re very happy with the way it’s going.”
The other market movers have been another possible English protagonist Lattam, No More Porter and Flame Of Eire.
