CLASSIC MOVE was a close third on his debut under Rules in a Punchestown bumper in the spring. He's left Don Cantillon for Donald McCain since but that's hardly a negative and he's likely to start at short odds in this. Abel J Tasman and Our Boy Ben both disappointed on their second starts but Serenity Now was third at Wetherby on debut and is entitled to improve. Reggie Parrot and Taylor may prove the pick of the newcomers.
