A contest where the market should be informative. Aidan O'Brien has taken the last two renewals and fields a pair of Wootton Bassett colts in BRUSSELS and Kansas. The former made 300,000gns at the sales and is the mount of Ryan Moore so a big run looks more than likely. Kansas has had the benefit of an outing in Naas, where he finished third, and improvement should be forthcoming. He holds an entry in an early-closing sales race at Doncaster. O'Brien is operating at a strike-rate of just under 40 per cent in juvenile races this season. Newcomer Ennoble is one of two representatives from Joseph O'Brien's stable and is a half-brother to a Listed winner. |
Not much to go on with these 2yos, so a market check is essential. BRUSSELS looks a likely type on paper for Aidan O'Brien, who has won this with subsequent top-flight winners Henri Matisse (making his debut) and Unquestionable in the last two years. With Ryan Moore's presence in the saddle a significant-looking pointer, Brussels may be up to beating stablemate Kansas, who nonetheless commands respect after last month's promising debut run and has an experience advantage this time. Potential improver Slaudeen may be best of the rest ahead of Learntodiscover. |
