The stand-out record of the Aidan O'Brien yard in this contest over the years leaves it hard to ignore the clear and obvious chances of Nobel Prize and the 111-rated MONARCH OF EGYPT. The colt has finished behind Pinatubo (9½L) and Siskin on three occasions in Group company since making his debut in June 2019. The three-year-old can land this Group 3 contest at the expense of his stablemate and the Denis Hogan-trained Dalvey, who ran well in defeat over 1m at Leopardstown earlier this month.
