FormscanBy Gary Carson - POWER BLUE may be up to giving weight away to his rivals here. The Space Blues colt was a Group 1 winner when last seen in action in the Phoenix Stakes at the Curragh in August. The form of that race has worked out well with the runner-up True Love landing the Cheveley Park subsequently while leading Guineas hope Puerto Rico was back in fourth. This trip is the big question mark now with Power Blue. Aidan O’Brien saddles four with Ryan Moore on Flushing Meadows. This Wootton Bassett colt was beaten at short prices in a couple of stakes races last season but is obviously well regarded. Stablemate Dorset was progressive last season, winning the Goffs Million and Killavullan Stakes. He’s another for the shorlist.
