Verdict

A wide-open renewal of the first Classic of the season and it's worth noting trainer Aidan O'Brien has won three of the last four renewals. Ryan Moore opts for Ten Sovereigns, an impressive winner of the Middle Park here last season, though, there are stamina doubts with the amount of natural speed he possesses. Stablemate Magna Grecia has no such concerns, as seen when finishing off best in the Vertem Futurity Trophy (1m) last season. However, it might be worth chancing one at a likely bigger price. SHINE SO BRIGHT produced a smart weight carrying performance in Listed class here last time and he gave the impression the step up to 1m could see him to even better effect.
  1. Shine So Bright
  2. Ten Sovereigns
  3. Magna Grecia
