Aidan O'Brien has won the last three of these. San Antonio didn't get going until too late behind odds-on stablemate Covent Garden at Tipperary and will have come on a bundle for the experience. Duke Cador was also very green at Punchestown but it wouldn't be a surprise to see newcomer JOAQUIN SOROLLA beat them both. A son of Galileo out of a Group 2 winner, he's a full brother to the useful History so gets the nod to make a successful debut. Immutable made a promising debut at Punchestown and was only beaten a neck at Listowel while Dark Side found 7f too short at the Curragh. Gunsight ran a fine race at Killarney and will improve again while Sixpack and Sprewell are newcomers to note for the future.
