A Listed race only in name with several runners in here likely to be playing their trade in Group company this season. Cliffs Of Moher sets a clear standard on form and Aidan O'Brien's record speaks for itself in this race but with him likely to go off long odds-on, and not guarenteed to be fully tuned up for this, a chance is taken on BAY OF POETS. Charlie Appleby's runners often come on for their reappearance runs and he shaped like he needed the run at Epsom last time. He should prove a different prospect this year and may be capable of upsetting the likely favourite. Mirage Dancer could hardly have a more precocious pedigree and the market is possibly the best guide to his chance.
