Race preview
Jessica Harrington sends Bold Discovery over from Ireland after he took the Group 3 Amethyst Stakes at Leopardstown over a mile and although his stamina remains in question, he could go well at a big price. Astro King won't mind the faster going predicted here and should do better dropping back in trip after a one-paced effort in the Group 2 Jockey Club Stakes at Newmarket. ISRAR won the Group 2 Princess Of Wales's Stakes at Newmarket last July when he was over four lengths in front of Derby winner Adayar, his second last time out to Passenger at Chester reads well and possibly makes him the one to beat.
