Verdict

A few of these could make up into nice horses in time, but given the way Aidan O'Brien's horses tend to progress FULL MOON can get off the mark at the third time of asking. He ran two very nice races in defeat last year and looks a prime contender for O'Brien to win this for the second year in a row. Another trainer with a good record in this race is Dermot Weld, and his Timiniya makes some appeal on debut, while Wichita Line would have a say if taking another step forwards following a fine showing here last time out.
