Australia colt. Brother to 7f-9.4f winner Altair, closely related to 1½m winner Hyperbola. Fourth of 11 in maiden (16/1) at the Curragh (7f, soft) on debut 15 days ago, not knocked about. Should do better and poised for a big run.

Forecasts

Alder (2/1), Hiawatha (3/1), Mister Mister (7/2), Valiant King (7/1), Blazing Sunset (15/2), Arabian Legend (9/1), Sea Spray (14/1), Coach Madden (80/1)

HIAWATHA is a full-brother to Luxembourg, who made a successful debut at this Festival last year, and it would be no surprise to see the €1,200,000 colt do the same for Aidan O'Brien. Alder made a bright start at the Curragh and should improve, while Valiant King is another interesting newcomer.
