Caspian Prince could head back to the Curragh for the Derrinstown Stud Flying Five Stakes
Tony Coyle's speedster was brilliant when beating Marsha in the Sapphire Sakes last weekend and he could head back to the scene of that win soon after a short break
CASPIAN PRINCE could head back to to Ireland for the Derrinstown Stud Flying Five Stakes at the Curragh on September 10.
Tony Coyle's speedster put up an arguably career-best performance to beat Marsha by a short head in a thrilling finish to the Sapphire Stakes last weekend.
"He's a hell of a good horse. He's a legend," said the Malton trainer.
"He's grand. There's not a bother on him. We've not done a lot with him this week.
"There are plenty of options for Caspian. There's the Flying Five in the Curragh and the Abbaye trial in France. Basically, we'll just play it by ear.
"Him and Snap Shots have been out in the field. We're just keeping them ticking over."

Snap Shots went close to giving Coyle a big double at the Curragh when he was second to Tithonus in the Scurry Premier Handicap on the same card.
"I think Snap Shots is still improving. He's a big frame of a horse. There was a question mark if he'd go on soft ground, but he just got beat at Haydock on soft," said Coyle.
"He was unlucky at the Curragh. It was one of those things. Hopefully he can bang in a big one by the end of the year. He's a good horse.
"Snap Shots will probably go for the Great St Wilfrid (on August 19) if he gets in or he'll go for the silver consolation. He loves Ripon."
