With the ground seemingly getting more testing this could provide MORANDO with a chance to pick up a Group 1 prize having come up short at this level before. The ground could favour his grinding style rather than a few flashier types in this with the bonus being the fact his stable is in very good form. Last year’s Derby winner Anthony Van Dyck hasn’t been successful since but returned in good style in the Coronation Cup. Aidan O’Brien’s charge has to be respected as does Elarqam (tries this trip fir first time) after his sound reappearance second to Lord North. The unexposed Hamish is a wildcard contender on the ground.
