Joseph O'Brien is not expecting any fireworks from Starspangledbanner as he makes his first start since coming out of retirement in Sunday's Patrick P O'Leary Memorial Phoenix Sprint Stakes at the Curragh.
Already a dual Group One winner in Australia before joining Aidan O'Brien at the start of 2010, the six-year-old enjoyed a fantastic first year in Europe by landing the Golden Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot and the July Cup at Newmarket.

LANTERN ON FULL BEAM FOR SOLERA.

Trainer Richard Hannon believes a rise in distance will bring out the best in Sky Lantern in the German-Thoroughbred.com Sweet Solera Stakes at Newmarket.
The unbeaten daughter of Red Clubs could hardly have been more impressive on her racecourse bow at Goodwood in late May, after which she secured Listed honours at Naas.
Sky Lantern makes her first appearance since early June and steps up to seven furlongs for the first time.
