In depth

Verdict

Aidan O'Brien has won this with some smart performers including Viscount Nelson and Camelot and has three entries. Ryan Moore gets the leg-up on YANKEE STADIUM and the son of Galileo out of a USA Grade 1 winner could be good enough. Cabot Hills is by Gleneagles out of the Irish Oaks winner Peeping Fawn, who has produced four winners, while Cormorant cost 1,050.000gns as a yearling. Free Solo found 7f too short at Naas and was staying on when the race was over as was Perry Owens over the same trip at Roscommon. Dark Pine is a half-brother to five winners and one to note.
