Solitary Should find this course to his liking and goes well fresh however looks to have a little to find on balance.
Star Rage (IRE) A wonderful servant to connections who races for the 100th time here but is not the horse he was and may struggle in the closing.
Taffrail Won well over course and distance last month and comes here seeking a hat-trick, very much the one to beat.
Maknaas Goes well with cut in the ground and may give Taffrail most to do.
