It appeared something went amiss with MR TYRRELL at Salisbury in September and he hasn’t raced since. But his earlier form gives him a leading chance especially if he runs anywhere near a mark of 79. Island Brave ran well enough without threatening on his recent debut here and the remainder are all newcomers. David Simcock trains a couple of those with the 600,000 euros colt and 2000 Guineas entry, Bless Him, preferred to stablemate Gunmaker.
Bless Him (IRE) Sea The Stars colt out of Happy Land.
Gunmaker (IRE) Canford Cliffs gelding out of Can Dance.

Lord E (IRE) Lord Shanakill gelding out of Elouges.
