Lucky 15 Tips: Three to look out for at Curragh

It's a fantastic day of action on Sunday, with top-class racing from the Curragh in Ireland and Longchamp in France. There is also a Premier meeting at Doncaster and two other supporting cards in Britain at Musselburgh and Bath.
We've picked out a Lucky 15 offering from four races across the cards at the Curragh and Bath.
Lucky 15 Tips - Sunday, September 15
14:25 Curragh - Elizabeth Jane @ 5/1
The Blandford Stakes is a cracking race and a rematch between Purple Lily and Elizabeth Jane is in store. They finished third and fourth in the Irish Oaks at the Curragh last time, which is strong form that has worked out well, but Elizabeth Jane can reverse those placings and come out on top.
Elizabeth Jane was having only her third start on that occasion and shaped remarkably well, staying on strongly to finish only a length and a half behind Purple Lily, and she should be capable of reversing that form with another 57 days under her belt to have improved since.

15:35 Curragh - Beautiful Diamond @ 12/1
Bradsell is a warm order here and will be hard to beat if reproducing his Nunthorpe form. However, that was his major target this season and he might be vulnerable to an improver.
Beautiful Diamond stands out among them as she has recorded consecutive career best efforts and ran a huge race when behind the classy Believing over course and distance on her last outing.
That was only the eighth run of her career and there should be plenty more to come for Karl Burke, who has an excellent record when sending runners to Ireland this season.

15:40 Bath - Spitfire Bridge @ 12/1
A competitive staying handicap that provides a good opportunity for the lightly raced Spitfire Bridge. The Sheena West-trained four-year-old has run only four times on the Flat and produced his best effort so far when a close second over 1m5f at this course last month.
He has since run well switched to hurdling at Worcester and looks capable of breaking his duck now that he is returned to the Flat with Ray Dawson taking over from Trevor Whelan in the saddle.
The return to Bath is also in Spitfire Bridge’s favour and he can take another big step forward.

16:45 Curragh - Kyprios @ 8/11
This is a cracking race between two genuine top-class performers in the shape of champion stayer Kyprios and Giavellotto, who is improving rapidly.
However, Marco Botti's five-year-old doesn't appear to be going forward quickly enough to compete with Kyprios, who has returned to his very best form this season and looked better than ever when running away with the Goodwood Cup last time in a quick time for the grade.
That is the best form on offer here and a reproduction should be good enough for Kyrpios to maintain his unbeaten record this season.
