In depth

Verdict

Coeur D'Or hasn't been seen since a promising debut at Cork last year and might just need this. Roundel, Daylight Come and Avarice have been consistent enough at this sort of level while Karbassan showed plenty of promise last year. Gauntlet, by Galileo and closely related to numerous winners including the brilliant Danedream, was a 25/1 chance on his belated debut at Naas earlier this month and will have come on a bundle for the experience though all logical form points to GOLD MAZE. Jessica Harrington's charge was beaten just over a length in a Group 3 here in June before finishing mid-division in the Derby at Epsom and the Irish Derby here.
