Venice Beach seemingly has the best chance of the Aidan O'Brien trio and any rain would probably help his cause while stablemate Spanish Steps was in receipt of a good ride at Leopardstown when landing a Group 3 last time and he gets the services of Seamie Heffernan again here. However, CRACKSMAN would appear to be the one they all have to beat after fine efforts in Derbies either side of the Irish Sea and he should be seen to better effect here.
