Aidan O'Brien has won two of the last four renewals of this contest and he would appear to hold the key to this year's renewal. MONARCH OF EGYPT won very well on debut and given his pedigree, and the way he finished off his race that day, he looks sure to relish this step up in trip. Fort Myers is the obvious danger after his Coventry fourth while Siskin should have more to give in his bid to maintain his unbeaten record.
- Monarch Of Egypt
- Fort Myers
