FormscanBy Tom Weekes - HIAWATHA is a brother to stablemate Luxembourg and cost 1.2m euros as a yearling. Ballydoyle won this race in 2019 with subsequent Derby winner Anthony Van Dyck, while 2,000 Guineas-third Luxembourg won on debut over course and distance last July (in a median sires maiden) and Seamie Heffernan steered Breeders Cup winner Iridessa to score on debut over course and distance in 2018. Alder's trainer won this race last year with Piz Badile and while Alder showed promise on debut, looks vulnerable to smart types. Valiant King is by ill-fated first-season sire Roaring Lion and is out of a well-bred winning dam while stablemate Mister Mister, a 165,000gns yearling, is from capable German family. Sea Spray, a 50,000gns yearling, is out of a Listed-placed winning dam. Blazing Sunset could make Dermot Weld's sub's bench, behind Tiverton, for Galway and is a son of a winning dam who is a sister to two Group 1 winners.
