Going - Good, good to firm in places (Good after R1). Overcast and showery

Formscan By Alan Magee - Aidan O’Brien has been dominating Derby trials this season and SHACKLETON could be another winner for the Ballydoyle trainer. The son of Camelot landed the odds in a 1m1f maiden here last autumn before finishing third in the Group 3 Zetland Stakes at Newmarket and riding arrangements suggest he’s preferred to Thrice who was no match for stablemate Lambourn in the Chester Vase earlier this month. Reyenzi scored in impressive fashion on soft ground in a 1m2f Navan maiden last month, while it looks significant that Dylan Browne McMonagle rides Emit in preference to Cork maiden winner Dawn Spirit. Tiberius Thunder can’t be lightly discounted following a couple of useful efforts over this trip.
