Ger Lyons’ charge won each of his four starts last term, culminating in the Group One Phoenix Stakes, but was withdrawn at the start on his intended finale in the Middle Park Stakes at Newmarket after proving unruly in the stalls.

Vatican City, Royal Lytham, Lope Y Fernandes, Hong Kong, Fort Myers and Monarch Of Egypt could also represent the Ballydoyle handler.
O’Brien’s son Joseph has two to pick from in Choice Of Mine and the unbeaten Crossfirehurricane, who landed a Listed event on the all-weather in February.
