Aidan O'Brien holds a strong hand with Gentile Bellini, who got outpaced over this trip at Leopardstown before staying on strongly, and TURNBERRY ISLE. Seamie Heffernan has ridden them both and is on board the latter, who was ridden by an apprentice when just failing over 7f at Leopardstown, and his presence on the son of Galileo suggests he is the pick of the pair. Focus Required led for a long way over this trip at Gowran so should be thereabouts again while Metier finished in front of the selection at Gowran earlier though may do better on quicker ground. Baladiya never looked like winning at Cork after missing the break but ran on when the race was over and should do much better.
