Venice Beach (1/1), Haripour (7/2), Clongowes (4/1), Lucknow (9/1), Hillcrest Fire (14/1), Max Liebermann (16/1), Jigsaw (20/1), Little Princess (33/1), Regnum (66/1)
VENICE BEACH gets the cheekpieces added here for his third run and he has shaped nicely in two prior outings. He has some lofty entries and while it might be stretching it to suggest he'll have Classic designs, he certainly should have fair claims in a race of this nature now going up in distance. He looks to have plenty in hand on his two Ballydoyle stablemates. Clongowes ran a fine race on reappearance and might have run into an above average Weld newcomer in settling for second spot, he can go well here again. Hillcrest Fire is another that merits consideration having shown fair improvement at Cork over the weekend.
