Verdict

Aidan O'Brien had winners here on Friday evening and he won this race last year. His runners often come on markedly for their debut but it's interesting that Moore picks MOUNT TABORA here and the impeccably bred newcomer is taken to get the better of the stablemate with experience, All The King's Men. Boston Bruin is a newcomer to consider for a yard that have some first time out winners.
  1. Mount Tabora
  2. All The King's Men
  3. Boston Bruin
