      Verdict

      Aidan O'Brien has won this three times in the last ten years and has a trio of entries this time. Orderofthegarter and Sir Edwin Landseer are both by Galileo. The latter in particular is bred for middle distances so this trip should be ideal for his debut but War Defence looks the more likely to have the pace for this being by War Front from a speedy family. Birds Of Prey is from the first crop of the Flying Childers winner Sir Prancealot so should be speedy while Pindaric is a half-brother to 5f winner Miss Rosie. Seapoint showed little on her debut so the vote goes to NEOCLASSICAL, a half-brother to a two-year-old winner in the USA.
