Verdict

COUGAR has the pedigree for this sort of trip and is the pick of Seamie Heffernan from a trio of well-bred Aidan O'Brien representatives, so he gets a tentative vote to land what could prove to be a strong maiden. Paris Lights, a full brother to St Mark's Basilica, is another notable debutant, while Barud is the best of those with experience but has a poor run to put behind him.
