Verdict

Perhaps not the strongest renewal of this contest but last year's runner-up THOMAS HOBSON should be spot on for this after a prep run at the Curragh last time and with Ryan Moore on board, he's the first string for Willie Mullins' stable. 2016's winner Sheikhzayedroad isn't entirely straightforward but a return to his Meydan form earlier in the campaign should see him go close. At a likely bigger price, course winner Saunter could find improvement for this sizable step up in trip.
