Cormorant started favourite on his debut under Donnacha O'Brien here a fortnight ago and ran well enough though stable companion MYTHICAL may prove a better option. A €280,000 son of Camelot and related to the smart Johann Strauss and other winners, he has some fancy entries and can make a successful debut. Sacramento is by Pivotal out of a 7f winner while Agitare is by Teofilo and related to a 6f winner. Taramansour is a half-brother to two Group 3 winners and should be ideally suited by this trip.
