Held by the re-opposing Justifier when third here on debut and built on that as most from this yard do with an impressive performance to win next time up at the Curragh. Real possibility he turns the tables and looks stable first pick on jockeys.
Galileo half-brother to Canford Cliffs finished midfield on debut over C&D and in keeping with most from this yard improved to win here next over 1m. Looked a real stayer there so reverting to 7f may not be ideal and Armory looks first string.
Much too good for a once raced Aidan O'Brien trained favourite on debut although that rival heavily beaten again since. Still has to be taken seriously however such was his superiority and can only improve.
Once raced daughter of Dubawi finished third to Windracer and Love who both go in the 7:30 here looking a very decent prospect herself. That said she faces a tough ask now with all four rivals previous winners.

Although beaten by Justifier on debut ARMORY is taken to turn the tables now for Aidan O'Brien who has a fine record in this race having been very impressive himself since. Of course Justifier can improve similarly and rates the biggest danger although Zarzyni couldn't have been much more impressive himself on debut.
