Admiralty has yet to win in a dozen starts but has gone close the last twice and isn't badly treated with Shane Kelly's claim taken into account. Mo Henry last won a year ago but he's now on a lower mark and has performed with credit on his favoured quick ground the last twice. Pillar is 1-51 which is a poor strike-rate as he's generally consistent at this sort of level while Zeeyalater is another with just one victory to his credit though he's now on a 10lb lower mark and has to be respected. JOULES was returning from a very long break when a good fourth at Naas, with the favourite Ahundrednotout behind, and is handed the vote in a moderate handicap.
