With Aidan O'Brien saddling the last ten winners of this contest, LUXEMBOURG is taken to enhance that fine record further. He overcame greenness to get off the mark at Killarney in July and looks destined to go on to bigger and better things. Swan Bay put his experience to good use to score at Galway earlier this month so he's taken to chase the selection home, ahead of Manu Et Corde.
