Jim Bolger has a fine record in this and with his yard really firing on all cylinders now so THEOBALD, who has been very highly-tried and ran in the 2000 Guineas here last time, is expected to return to winning ways. Mustajeer has progressed from handicaps and was unlucky not to finish closer to Cliffs Of Moher in a Group 2 here on his reappearance so is an obvious threat though he may find the ground a bit lively. His stable companion Tennessee Wildcat makes a quick reappearance after his run in a Leopardstown Listed contest on Thursday. I'm So Fancy has only won once in 14 starts but generally performs with credit at this sort of level and it will be a surprise if she's not thereabouts. The Ballydoyle pair Easter Lily and Sizzling have both been disappointing this season.
