      Verdict

      This was used as a warm-up race for Fame And Glory last season and Aidan O'Brien is taking a similar route with the brilliant New Zealand-bred Australian-based import SO YOU THINK, who holds entries in every conceivable big race this summer. Five times a Grade 1 winner at home, he didn't quite last out the trip when a short-priced favourite for the Melbourne Cup and there will be some very long faces at Coolmore if he's beaten here. The filly Termagant, who won the Group 1 Moyglare Stud Stakes in 2009, is gradually making her way back after injury and will be better for her recent run behind Lolly For Dolly in the Park Express Stakes here in March when Mid Mon Lady was behind.
