Would Be King has the credentials but has become frustrating and somewhat costly to follow, though he surely can win a race of this nature. Fridtjof Nansen has been going the right way and has a runner-up finish over C&D already, she should be involved, but perhaps this is destined for VIVIANITE. She was an excellent second at the Curragh last time and won't need much more in a first-time hood to get off the mark. Newcomer Ottava also merits close inspection.
