Lord Justice made his debut in what looked a strong maiden at Cork last month and was staying on strongly at the finish. Donnacha O'Brien has been entrusted with the ride again and it will be a surprise if the partnership isn't there at the finish. Dermot Weld has two entries and Pat Smullen has chosen MONOCLE, whose third place behind the long odds-on Unicorn at Leopardstown was very promising and normal progress can see him home. Power Struggle ran well over the track and trip behind Cook Islands though looked as though a longer trip was required while Murmuration may be ridden with a bit more restraint after fading close home over 7f at Cork. Remarkable Lady was beaten a short-head over 7f at Down Royal and along with Hazamar, who just failed to concede 5lb to Miss Gossip at Leopardstown, and the 75,000 euros yearling Dinozzo, make this an interesting maiden.
