Verdict

Several promising sorts in opposition, including PROUD AND REGAL who has looked every inch a smart colt in the making, winning a Leopardstown Group 3 four weeks ago, and could be the answer with the prospect of more to come. The Aidan O'Brien trained pair Aesop's Fables and Hans Andersen are others fancied to feature.
