Joseph O'Brien took this last year with Sir Erec, and he can strike again, with MILLSWYN looking the pick of his pair, while Gordon Elliott has no less than six, of whom much the most interesting appears to be French import Saint D'Oroux. Very Excellent is more exposed, but improving gradually with experience, and has place claims.
