Aidan O'Brien's GENEALOGY shaped well on his debut when a running-on second at the Curragh and with a fair bit of progress on the cards he makes most appeal. Ger Lyons' Storm Piece also has better days ahead of him and is next best, although well-bred Camelot newcomer Lord Byron and Galway second Starry Desert can't be discounted either in this intriguing maiden.
