Verdict

This is wide open and though he hasn't been seen for nearly 2 years, ARAMAIC can pick up from where he left off in 2021 and regain the winning thread for his top yard. Spirit Dancer took his form up a notch last season, so Richard Fahey's charge is fancied to give the selection most to think about, with Nobel and Eeetee another couple meriting consideration.

  1. ARAMAIC (IRE)
  2. SPIRIT DANCER
  3. NOBEL (IRE)
