Mister Aviation has done nothing wrong in two decent class maidens over 7f and should be winning soon but as we have seen so often this season with Ballydoyle entries NEVIS, who was behind him at the Curragh earlier this month, will have come on a bundle for the run. The winner that day was another Aidan O'Brien colt in The United States and tonight's entry, the first foal of the yard's Irish Oaks winner Moonstone, should have made enough progress to take this. Military Device is related to a host of winners and with Dermot Weld's yard gearing up for Galway he's one to keep an eye on along with David Wachman's Galileo colt Seussical, the first foal of a winning miler.
