The top three are all southern hemisphere-bred so have extra to carry. Jockey bookings suggest Es-unico is the pick of his stable's pair and his three victories in five starts in Uruguay include a Listed contest. LORELEY, runner-up on his debut there in March, has completed a hat-trick on Dirt by a combined 25 lengths including two Listed contests so could be anything. Pat Cosgrave was on board when Royal Dubai made a spectacular debut here in November but Tadhg O'Shea rides the stable's easy 6f winner Morning. The remaining trio are all maiden winners with any amount of improvement in them.
