Aidan O'Brien won this last year with an odds-on chance and LEARN is likely to be a warm order for the Ballydoyle team here. A close third to a stablemate on his debut at the Curragh, he was strongly fancied to go one better at Galway last week but found Riviera Poet too strong. This looks a good opportunity to lose his maiden tag though Miss Dylan was thrown in at the deep end on her debut in a Group 3 here last month and performed with credit behind Maybe. Fastidious started favourite on his debut at the Curragh in May but disappointed. With his stable now in spectacular form he can be expected to do better while there are plenty of choicely-bred newcomers to watch out for including Akeed Mofeed and the Ballydoyle pair Daddy Long Legs and Requisition, the latter out of the Irish 1000 Guineas winner Saoire.
