Red Ark Improved out of all recognition last season and stables runners have needed a run this year, others preferred.
Major Sponsor (IRE) Front runner whose best form is on fast ground over fences; others preferred.
Hisar (IRE) Has been in top form of late but he is creeping up the weights.
Omni Cosmo Touch (USA) Has improved with each run but his best form is over longer trips.
Glamanglitz Likes this course and distance but he is more exposed than his younger rivals; others preferred.
Gatorade (NZ) Best form is on fast ground over a longer trip but he may be the one to be on as he travels well in his races.
Wrens Island (IRE) Is out the handicap and will need to improve to win this.
