An open looking maiden with plenty of the top trainers represented. None more so than Spanish Steps who showed improvement on seasonal reappearance at Navan last time over this trip and should have more to give. He looks the more likely of the Ballydoyle duo for this race. Harrana, in the Derby-winning Harzand colours, ought to go better now back down in trip and is another capable of better but the vote goes to MYSTIC TRAVELLER who also posted an improved effort at Navan last time out and should be suited now going up from the mile journey. His yard are in excellent form and he may boost it still further. The once-raced Covetous is worth a check in the betting on his return to action for another yard going good guns, while the same is true of Abracadarbra, a rare Flat runner for his yard.
