Verdict

95,000 gns yearling and Ger Lyons-trained, FRANK ARTHUR makes his belated debut in this contest. The January foal can be expected to be well schooled and developed for his racecourse introduction here and can get the better of the Aidan O'Brien-trained Hong Kong who has failed to take his chance in two career starts to date. Tom Hogan's Born To Rule ran well in defeat on debut at the Curragh last month and can battle for the minor honours with another newcomer, Soul Seeker for the Dermot Weld yard.
