LOST TREASURE is another with leading claims for Aidan O’Brien. He’s clear at the weights and difficult to oppose after a terrific effort in last week’s Prix de l’Abbaye at Longchamp when starting at 100/1 and beaten only a length. He should have the measure of stable companions St Patrick's Day and Dali while it was heavy ground when Downforce won a Listed event over track and trip back in April. Smash Williams was placed in a Group 3 last time and drops down in trip along with Clive Cox’ Snazzy Jazzy, who landed the Ayr Silver Cup last month. Ed Lynam has good recent record in this with Fas preferred to winning handicapper Soffia of his duo.
