This has been run five times - Aidan O'Brien has won four and Jim Bolger the other. The former has four entries and though jockey bookings rarely tell us much the presence of Ryan Moore on board the Galileo colt CHURCHILL suggests he may be the best of the Ballydoyle battalions, though Istan does have the benefit of a run on heavy going at Tipperary. Moritzburg is the other with experience and he came up against the exciting Psychedelic Funk at Naas. Bolger runs Fior Cliste, whose pedigree suggests she will be suited by further in time.
