Verdict

Aidan O'Brien tries His Way in blinkers for the first time after his flop when strongly fancied at Navan. His earlier run at Dundalk would probably be good enough for this but he may be best watched for now. Coxwain has his first start for new connections after leaving Mark Johnston where he just failed under Frankie Dettori at Lingfield to repel Usquaebach. All four of his starts in the UK were on an all-weather surface but there's no reason why he shouldn't act on turf. SIMON BOLIVAR never raced on decent going on turf last year with his best effort coming on his final start on polytrack. He looks the type to do better this year and returns to action on a fair mark. Milvian Bridge ended her first campaign on a low note but produced three good efforts in similar company to this in the summer and should be on the short-list in a moderate contest.
