Verdict

ALABAMA and Noche Magica both make plenty of appeal on paper and it will be interesting to see how they shape up in the betting. As things stand, preference is for the Aidan O'Brien-trained Alabama. Sturlasson made a positive start to his career when runner-up at the Curragh a fortnight ago and is likely to have a say, too.
