Verdict

Bluesbreaker likes to get on with things and will possibly lead the field in the early stages from stall five. The six-year-old could have a couple in trouble some way out now racing 7lb lower than his last winning mark. The Dermot Weld-trained LUZUM found the sharp trip too much last time out and can go well stepping up in distance while the improving pair Comhghairdeas and Castrogiovanni - formerly with Joseph O'Brien - can battle for the minor honours.
