One-time Classic contender Amedeo Modigliani may make his long-awaited reappearance at Naas on Sunday.
The Aidan O’Brien-trained four-year-old is one of 12 entries for the Listed Devoy Stakes over a mile and a quarter, as the new Flat turf season gets under way in Ireland.
A son of Galileo, Amedeo Modigliani has not run since winning at Galway in August 2017 – missing the whole of his three-year-old season, having entered the winter as a leading fancy for the Investec Derby.
Among the potential opposition is Dermot Weld’s equally lightly-raced filly Hazel Bay.
The once-raced Luceita is one of two possibles for Jim Bolger in the Group 3 Lodge Park Stud EBF Park Express Stakes.
Owned by Godolphin, the daughter of Dawn Approach looked promising on her sole three-year-old start when winning at the Curragh.
Blandford Stakes runner-up Who’s Steph features for Ger Lyons, while Group 3 victor Yulong Gold Fairy represents Weld.
