Real Appeal won this last year but isn't in that kind of form while this hasn't been the greatest of races for Ballydoyle and Glounthaune well need major improvement to take a hand. Goodwood Group 2 winner Jadoomi will be suited by the conditions more than most but BOUNDLESS OCEAN has won three times here. Though all of those victories came on good ground, Jim Bolger's colt looks the one to beat. Georgeville is held by the latter on their run here in July and Raadobarg on their run here last month. Just Beautiful's overall form when trained in the UK leaves a bit to be desired but she's been trained with this race in mind and a long absence won't be a problem.
