Jamesie won this last year but this is a tougher renewal and he was behind fifth-placed FLIGHT RISK at the Curragh last time - Jim Bolger’s charge should make a bold bid on today’s terms. In Salutem arrives on the back of a win over 5f at Ascot and was ahead of The Happy Prince when fourth at the Curragh in July. The Ballydoyle colt has since been placed at Tipperary while Ardhoomey was in good form over the minimum trip early in the season when rattling-up a hat-trick. G Force has not been at his best so far this year and Pretty Love has no chance on these terms.
