13/8

Dee Stakes winner (Chester) and Epsom Derby runner up to stablemate Wings Of Eagles. Hasn't been at his best since and needs to step up on reappearance effort here over C&D. Class animal of the race.

9/1

Lightly-raced British import, impressively won a 1m2f handicap at this track in October on debut for this yard off a mark of 91. Has a little to find with a couple of these but a potential improver.

14/1

Smart dual purpose performer. Best flat efforts have been over a little further and has a bit to find on form with one or two of these.

Success Days^t²³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: S Foley| T: K J Condon| OR: 114| D

8/1

Front runner who won well in the Group 2 York Stakes last July. Likes to get his toe into the ground though so would really appreciate some rain to be at his best. Was well beaten by the superstar Winx on recent trip to Australia.

Form: 42100-0

Yucatan²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: J A Heffernan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 109| BF

4/1

Looked in need of the run on reappearance behind Capri over C&D three weeks ago. Should come on for that first run for almost a year and is a strong contender.

Form: 122/32-4

Beautiful Morning²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: C O'Donoghue| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 107| D

7/2

Won a Listed event at Yarmouth on final start in 2017. Ran with much credit on return over C&D behind Capri (3L ahead of Yucatan). Top shout once again if she has come on from that.

Form: 44521-3

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: K J Manning| T: J S Bolger| OR: 106| BF| D

11/1

Won a Group 3 at The Curragh in May last year. Largely consistent afterwards and another with claims after ten months off.

Forecasts

Cliffs Of Moher (13/8), Beautiful Morning (7/2), Yucatan (4/1), Success Days (8/1), Mustajeer (9/1), Turret Rocks (11/1), Renneti (14/1)

Any rain would be very welcome for the chances of the front-running Success Days. Yucatan and Beautiful Morning are closely matched on their recent clash over C&D but ready preference is for CLIFFS OF MOHER. Things haven’t gone his way since an excellent second in the Derby last term but he is taken to bounce back to form here with Ryan Moore on board.
