Forecasts

Twilight Payment (5/2), Falcon Eight (11/4), Victory Salute (7/2), Cypress Creek (6/1), Renneti (10/1), Persian Lion (14/1), Zabriskie (20/1), Kingston Girl (100/1)

Verdict

Aidan O'Brien launches a three pronged attack at this with Cypress Creek the choice of Ryan Moore, although it would surprise few if Victory Salute improved significantly for the step up to 2m. Rennetti and TWILIGHT PAYMENT have taken the last two renewals with the latter representing a totally different calibre of opponent to those Willie Mullins' charge disposed of last year. The selection has been mixing it with Ireland's best stayers and sets the bar high for the three-year-olds. Dermot Weld's Falcon Eight has gained two facile victories and has looked smart in the process. He needs to be in order to maintain his unbeaten record in this company.
  1. Twilight Payment
  2. Falcon Eight
  3. Victory Salute
