Verdict

Aidan O'Brien has won two of the three renewals of this and has four entries. The Frankel colt Fighter showed good speed for a long way at Punchestown and will have come on a bundle for the experience. ILLINOIS, a son of Galileo, is related to seven winners including Arc winner Danedream and may be the one here. Mont St Michel is also by Galileo out of a mare who has produced winners with her first five offspring. The Camelot colt Tour Of Duty cost 450,000gns and is a half-brother to a 1m4f winner. Joseph O'Brien also has four entries, all unraced, with Soul Of Spain possibly the pick on breeding at this stage. Solar Saving makes a quick reappearance after a cracking debut behind two smart looking colts at Naas on Wednesday.
