Verdict

MOUNT MERU shaped well amidst greenness when runner-up on his Gowran debut and is taken to go one better now, perhaps at the main expense of the Aidan O'Brien pair Kingdom of Camelot and Aladdin's Cave. Louis de Foix and the other Aidan O'Brien runner, Pirate of Penzance, are newcomers to monitor closely in the betting.
