Three Majors has won three times around here and has only been caught in the final strides in his last two starts over 7f on the track. He's well enough handicapped to make a bold bid while Queluz won from 2lb higher here in May and has Dylan Hogan's claim to help. Dream Sleep was making her all-weather debut when battling to victory over the track and trip a fortnight ago and a 5lb rise shouldn't prevent another strong effort but this can go to VOYAGEOFDISCOVERY. He signalled an imminent victory when beaten a short-head by Pari Passu at Thurles and went one better in comfortable style here earlier this month. He's up 5lb but has won from much higher marks in the past.
