Verdict

Aidan O'Brien has a good record in this, though his last winner was back in 2006. But GLENEAGLES can put that right as the progressive colt rattled-up a four-timer with victory in the Group 1 National Stakes over 7f at the Curragh three weeks ago. He gets the nod as one of his main rivals, The Wow Signal, steps up in trip after landing the Prix Morny in testing ground at Deauville last time. The unbeaten Full Mast also looks a threat on his victory in a Group 3 over track and trip though runner-up Nucifera was not beaten far with Territories back in third. War Envoy has the beating of Aktabantay on collateral form in lesser company and Burnt Sugar will need to improve on her latest Group 3 win at Kempton.
