Formscan - Not only has Aidan O'Brien taken out the last three renewals of this prestigious contest, he's also landed four of the last five and Dee Stakes winner Constitution River could be a tall order after defeating stable companion Hawk Mountain in the Prix du Jockey Club at Chantilly. It's difficult to envisage a scenario in which the pair aren't closely matched again, but even so, the ante-post market doesn't quite reflect that. Saddadd isn't without a chance because he posted a creditable third in the Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh, though GETHIN could be the play. An impressive winner of the Magnolia at Kempton, he pushed the mighty Ombudsman all the way in the Brigadier Gerard and if taking that form literally, he should go very close to winning this.

Quotes on A Boy Named Susie (IRE)
In fairness Donnacha always liked this horse and I'm delighted he came out and did that. It's my first time back here since my fall, so thankfully this is a much better day.
