BIG TWO COULD CLASH IN FUTURITY.

Dawn Approach and Mars, the two leading candidates for next year's Classics, could clash in Sunday's Galileo EBF Futurity Stakes at the Curragh.
The Jim Bolger-trained Dawn Approach is clear favourite for the 2000 Guineas, while Aidan O'Brien's Mars is next in the betting and heads the market for the 2013 Derby.
Dawn Approach has already won at this level when landing the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot, but Mars would be taking a step up in class after winning on his only start at Dundalk

DUNLOP EAGER FOR BREEDERS' TRIP.

Ed Dunlop has a "secret wish" that Snow Fairy will run at the Breeders' Cup later on this year.
The brilliant five-year-old returned from a lengthy lay-off to win her fifth Group One in five different countries on Sunday, taking the Prix Jean Romanet at Deauville.
Dunlop has fond memories of America, having taken another brilliant filly, Ouija Board, across the Atlantic for three successive Breeders' Cups, winning twice and finishing second once.
