In depth

Verdict

Aidan and Joseph O'Brien saddle more than half of this field between them. The latter has a trio of entries headed by Dream Malfunction, who showed excellent pace on her debut on soft ground at the Curragh and will have come on markedly for the run. The stable are also represented by the newcomers Eos and Victory Boom. The Ballydoyle team will be expecting a better run from Easter Lily, who started favourite on her debut here last month but could only finish fourth though she didn't get the run of the race. However, all eyes here will be on CONQUEST, a full sister to the brilliant Minding and Group 3 winner Kissed By Angels and she's handed the vote to make a successful start. Flattering is another of Aidan O'Brien's entries while Jim Bolger saddles Active Approach, who will be suited by further in time. Zalzar led for a long way over this trip at Limerick and only faded close home though this looks a stronger race.
