An even bunch of eight two year old colts will face the starter in this Grade One Juvenile on Saturday in Ireland<\/st1:place><\/st1:country-region>. The favourite is BEGIN THE BE GREEN from the mycaza stable and from the inside gate will be hard to beat. TEMPLE<\/st1:PlaceType> OF ZEUS<\/st1:PlaceName><\/st1:place> from the anzac2 barn will be strong in the stretch and will prove hard for the favourite to run past. Below is a rundown of each runner:<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

Followed a good second in the Prado\u2019s Big Fan Juvenile at Finland<\/st1:country-region> over six furlongs with a win in the Grade Two Norfellow Stakes at Berkshire<\/st1:place> over five furlongs last start. Will give this a good shake. Will be well handled by Z Kentucky who will give him every chance.<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

PP2 – 11 TEMPLE<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> OF ZEUS (AUS) 9\/2<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/B><\/P>

Unbeaten after wins at Victoria in a seven furlong Maiden and all the way victory last time out in the Organic Chemistry Juvenile over six and a half furlongs at the United Arab Emirates. Drops back again in distance but will more then likely go straight to the lead and prove hard to run down in the stretch. Should be well ridden by EC Doyle.<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

Won at his debut over six furlongs at Paris finishing strongly in Maiden class. Up in class here but looks like an improver that will handle the rise in class. <\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

Win Percent 25.0% Ave Pzemoney $12,467 SP Rating 79<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

Won his Maiden at New South Wales three starts back over five and a half furlongs and was only beaten a short margin last start when third at Victoria Allowance race over six furlongs when he made a strong late bid in the stretch. Will be running on strongly again but may find these a bit nippy here.<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>
