Aidan O'Brien looks to hold a strong hand here and his improving Justify filly OPERA SINGER is fancied to edge out stablemate Brilliant in an intriguing Group 3 contest. Kalispera is another with better days ahead of her who needs considering along with the unexposed Shelaka.

  1. OPERA SINGER (USA)
  2. BRILLIANT (IRE)
  3. KALISPERA (IRE)
