Intriguing 2-year-old contest with an Aiden O'Brien improver in Coat Of Arms, along with Port Lions and Navajo Dreamer, who both came on from their last start and the newcomer from a stable inform, Daliyah from the Ger Lyons yard, with preference for the Jim Bolger-trained DAWN HOOFER, who put in a fine debut performance and looked very forward.
