Ocean Conquest was beaten three lengths behind Henry Longfellow at the Curragh in July and still looked green on a return visit the following month. Rapid Mission was behind in the latter event though didn't get the clearest of runs. Rocking Tree couldn't get close to Diego Velazquez over 7f at the Curragh but was staying on late and the extra is certain to suit. The Frankel colt FIGHTER is closely related to Irish Derby winner Trading Leather and other winners and is taken to make a successful debut.
