Verdict

Aidan O'Brien won this three times in succession up to last year and has a trio of entries. Chantilly attempted to make all over this trip on heavy ground at Killarney but had no answer when Naval Force swept past. THE EUPHRATES, a son of Frankel who cost 800,000gns, got outpaced before staying on and can reverse the places and take this. Old Faithful couldn't cope with Nor Time Nor Tide on soft ground at Listowel but that was a very strong race. Kolachi was staying on over slightly shorter at Tipperary while Thor's Hammer had been narrowly beaten twice before running a fair race in the Goffs Million. Man Of Worth, by Sea The Stars out of a Group 3 winner, is a newcomer to note.
