Verdict

Aidan O'Brien and Jim Bolger both have three entries. Afar is the only one of the former's trio to have run and has been a beaten favourite on both starts over 6f. Chablis cost over one and a half million guineas and is related to six winners and out of a middle-distance Group 1 winner while Simply Beautiful is by Galileo out of the top-class Simply Perfect. National Identity and Oiche Re Gealai both make very quick reappearances for Bolger after running at Leopardstown on Saturday where the latter showed good pace for a long way over that mile. Under Blue Sky also represents the yard and she's related to several winners at around this trip. Baladiya wasn't given a hard time at Cork in August after missing the break while Peruvian Lady made a promising debut at the Curragh before finding Listed company at Fairyhouse too hot. SINGER looked in need of the run at the Curragh in August but caught the eye with an encouraging start and the runner-up won easily next time so Ger Lyons' filly gets the nod.
