George Boughey runs three and new inmate Forceful Speed went close at the Curragh on his debut, though William Buick partners stablemate Manuha. The latter is also preferred to Solitary Trees but MUTAANY looks the one to beat. The latter was no match for subsequent Group 2 winner Marbaan when second at Nottingham but Charlie Hills’ colt has an easier task today. Starnberg drops down in trip while Soleil Blanc placed over 5f back in April.
