Verdict
With the Ballydoyle/Ryan Moore partnership flying, AMALFI COAST will attract support and is more speedily bred than is normal for the stable being by Showcasing out of a mare from a sprinting family. Joseph O'Brien has two entries with Andreas Vesalius having a very speedy pedigree being a son of Caravaggio out of a 6f two-year-old winner. The stable's Swift One is a brother to a 6f winning juvenile and half-brother to two others while the Dawn Approach colt Celtic Times is a half-brother to a 7f two-year-old winner. The filly Butterfly Island is by Acclamation out of a mare who won over 1m2f while the €140,000 foal Jupiter Express is by Kodiak out of a Group 2 winner and related to a host of winners.
