Aidan O´Brien´s charge beat subsequent Derby hero New Approach in both the English and Irish 2000 Guineas and will be trying to give his trainer a fifth win in 10 years in the Ascot showpiece. The Ballydoyle team also run Minneapolis while Godolphin will be double-handed with Alexandros and Derby seventh Rio De La Plata, although the latter will only run if the ground is suitable.
