Verdict

Joseph O'Brien holds a strong hand here. Choice Of Mine is likely to be a warm order after a very good run in a Dundalk Group 3 and was nowhere near his best when beaten a long way on his only start on Turf at the Curragh. He'll be difficult to beat though stable companion GALILEO CHROME (NAP) has always looked a horse with a lot of potential and could prove it here. Entered for the Irish Derby, he couldn't take his place through injury but gets a chance to start making up for lost time. Camorra made a successful debut on soft ground so would probably need more rain while Masteroffoxhounds isn't certain to stay the trip. Mosala couldn't peg back Comfort Line at Limerick but had the remainder well beaten so should give a good account.
