MOONLIGHT SPIRIT was a Group 3 winner on the Flat when with Godolphin. He rather lost his way last year but Jimmy Moffatt has done well rejuvenating similar types in the past. Roxanya placed in two bumpers and a Limerick maiden last season and may be the danger ahead of recent course and distance third The Big Jetaway. Fabuleux Du Clos and Vintage Fizz look best of the rest.
