        Verdict

        This has been run twice and Aidan O'Brien, who has won them both, is triple-handed this time. With Joseph on board THE UNITED STATES he's probably the one to be with, especially as he has good pace in his pedigree despite being a son of Galileo. Nevis is by Dansili and is the first foal of the Irish Oaks winner Moonstone but Vinson Massif should have enough speed as he's by Giant's Causeway out of a two-year-old winner. Grafelli is the first runner of the stallion Hannouma and was cheaply bought and Mister Aviation hung badly on his debut at Gowran, though he'll have learned plenty from the experience.
