James Doyle rode BENDOOG to a debut success here last January and was back on board when a close second in a Listed contest here last month, when he had First Constitution, Ajuste Fiscal and Atletico El Culano behind. Tadhg O'Shea, who had been on board in all of his races in-between, takes the ride on King Of The Match, five-times a winner on Dirt in South Korea. Salute The Soldier had a brilliant campaign here in 2021 where he had a Group 1 success though he wasn't in that kind of form last winter. Military Law has Listed and Group 2 victories to his credit around here and will have come on a bundle for last month's run.
