Seaforth made a promising start at Galway but disappointed in a Listed race in Germany last time while Dawn Mirage failed to show any improvement at the Curragh recently albeit on his first start since May. CORBATA ran well enough for third at Listowel on his debut and John Oxx' colt may come out best ahead of the newcomers. The latter group are represented by Mesmerism, a half-brother to Kentucky Derby hero Street Sense, while Ballydoyle run Father Christmas, a half-brother to stablemate Michaelmas, as well as fellow Derby entry Fields Of Athenry.
