Verdict

This can go to a newcomer, with preference for OPERA BALLO who was an expensive purchase and whose yard won both divisions of this race last year, including with subsequent 2000 Guineas winner Notable Speech. Ledanis also fetched a six-figure sum and is another to note on debut, with Gennadius completing the shortlist.

  1. OPERA BALLO (IRE)
  2. LEDANIS (IRE)
  3. GENNADIUS
