oddschecker Verdict
Runner-up at Navan on his introduction, CHOCTAW NATION can open his account. The Aidan O'Brien-trained colt showed definite promise when staying on late to take minor honours behind a short-priced favourite who made the frame in Group 1 company either side of that run. It will be a surprise if the son of Sea The Stars doesn't progress enough to score here. Adversity stepped forward from his debut effort to finish third at Naas and, with the benefit of that experience, the Natalia Lupini-trained colt looks a definite contender. Cracks And Sparks, who stayed on nicely when fifth on his introduction at Naas, should appreciate stepping up in distance.
Prediction: 1st Choctaw Nation, 2nd Adversity, 3rd Cracks And Sparks
