This will take some getting and experience may be key. Druid's Altar hasn't been beaten far in any of his three runs, the latest on soft ground at Galway, so looks certain to get into contention. But MASTERDREAM is by Sea The Stars and bred for this trip. He made a fair start on soft ground at Tipperary and can progress enough to take this. Golddragon Reef made an encouraging debut on soft going at Galway and is certain to improve while the newcomers Caldwell and the Coolmore-owned Star Of Juniper are well connected, especially the latter who is by Deep Impact out of a Group 3 winner.
