7/1
Won 12-runner maiden at Listowel (7.1f, good, 8/11) 25 days ago, keeping on well. Stable in good form. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Should continue to give a good account.

16/1
Lightly-raced winner. 5¼ lengths last of 7 to Lumiere Rock in Staffordstown Stud Stakes (15/2) at the Curragh (8f, soft) 7 days ago, lost all chance at start. No forlorn hope.

Forecasts

Cairo (5/2), Bold Discovery (7/2), Sierra Blanca (5/1), Tiverton (7/1), King Of Scotia (9/1), Lakota Seven (12/1), Clever And Cool (16/1), Imadpour (18/1), Bossy Parker (20/1), Bay Of Plenty (22/1), Daamberdiplomat (50/1)

Verdict

Aidan O'Brien looks to hold a strong hand in this Group 3 and his fast improving colt SIERRA BLANCA is fancied to confirm the promise of his recent Curragh second and open his account. Stable-companion Cairo also has better days ahead of him and is next on the list with Lakota Seven, Tiverton and Bold Discovery set to fight it out for minor honours.
