Aidan O'Brien has won the last three renewals and Inner Realm, a half-sister to Rock Of Gibraltar and several other winners, will improve from her debut on heavy ground at the Curragh behind stablemate Harrison's Cave and today's rival Smithfield with TUGBOAT and eye-catching seventh and Ansgar, who hated the going, a long way behind. That looked a fair event and Tugboat looks the one to improve enough to take this. Sunset Stanza started odds-on at Listowel after a very pleasing introduction at Killarney but didn't enjoy the testing conditions and was a big disappointment. Statesmanship is a newcomer to note on his belated racecourse debut.
