Verdict

Aidan O'Brien introduces two newcomers with Ryan Moore partnering DIEGO VELAZQUEZ, a son of Frankel who cost no less than 2.4 million guineas as a yearling and presumably plenty will be expected. Admittedly, Ballydoyle debutants are rarely fully wound up on debut but he has some classy entries and ticks a lot of boxes. Not to say that stablemate Old Faithful doesn't do likewise and it would be no surprise if the son of Siyouni delivers a strong account. The market should prove fascinating, with Ger Lyons also doubly represented and Colin Keane taking the mount on the already gelded Rocking Tree. Others to take the eye on paper are the Too Darn Hot colt, Masoun, for Johnny Murtagh, and Surfers Paradise for Joseph O'Brien. Ringside Timing has place claims.
