Support has started coming for Rosallion ahead of tomorrow’s Irish 2000 Guineas at the Curragh, according to Ladbrokes.

A Group One winner at two, Rosallion returned to action in the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket. Sean Levey positioned his mount just behind the pace and looked to have the field covered at City Of Troy faded away. That was until Notable Speech got going along the inside rail, forging clear of Rosallion on the run to the line.

Stablemate, Haatem finished third that day and he also makes the trip over to the Curragh. In the build-up, Richard Hannon has said that Rosallion was "working like a genius", eclipsing Haatem on the gallops and Levey's mount have been backed into odds-on favouritism for the Irish 2000 Guineas since the field was confirmed.

"The Irish 2000 Guineas market has been relatively static during the week." Said Nicola McGeady of Ladbrokes. 

"Today the money has started to come for Rosallion at the head of the market. He looks a rock solid favourite, with very little opposition for him."

Elsewhere, Art Power has shortened into 7/2 favouritism for the Greenland Stakes, a race that Tim Easterby's top sprinter won impressively 12 months ago.

Opera Singer has been cut into 9/4 favouritism for Sunday's Irish 1000 Guineas, despite Aidan O'Brien claiming his filly would need her first run of the season. Another Ballydoyle in-mate that's been cut by Ladbrokes is Auguste Rodin, who'll make his seasonal reappearance in the Tattersalls Gold Cup on Sunday, rather than head to the Coronation Cup at Epsom's Derby meeting.
