Plenty of good yards are represented in this finale and the betting amrkets may well provide valuable information as to which horses are ready and fancied. GLOBAL RHAPSODY cost €110,000 and represents a yard that do well in this sphere so is a tentative choice, marginally preferred to the experienced Rhythm Is a Dancer. Earth Spirit, Master Card and Rufio are interesting, as too are Earth Moor and Fly To Mars.
