Jessica Harrington's LOVING A BOOM sets the standard here having run well on debut at Naas. He was well backed there so had clearly shown ability at home and with the run under his belt there should be more come. The main worry would be the presence of regally bred debutant Foreign Secretary although most of Aidan O'Brien's two year olds come on significantly for their first run. Groovy Jazz met a smart one last time but wasn't disgraced and he is expected to be thereabouts in this contest.
