Aidan O'Brien has saddled the winner of this race nine times since 2003 and in MEDITATE he fields a very strong candidate this time round. The No Nay Never filly made it 3-3 with an authoritative performance in the Albany at Royal Ascot and, with the promise of even better to come, she will prove hard to beat. Aidan's son Joseph has landed the last two renewals and his representatives Zoinnocent and Thornbrook are taken to fill the places.
