Give yourself plenty of cover in tricky-looking Cambridgeshire
Aidan O'Brien has won the juvenile maiden (1.30) on Sunday's Curragh card for the past three seasons and can probably maintain the sequence in the opening Pick Six contest.
Last season the trainer saddled the first two in the race, with the favourite beaten into second. With three runners on this occasion a similar scenario is possible, but the experience of the Ryan Moore-partnered Christopher Robin, runner-up on his debut at Leopardstown, should prove decisive. For insurance purposes, the Mick Halford-trained Port Lions, placed on all three starts, fits the bill.
O'Brien's Tipperary Listed winner Ballet Shoes is solid banker material in the Group 3 Flame Of Tara Stakes (2.00), and the very experienced U S Navy Flag, second in the July Stakes at Newmarket and fourth in the Phoenix Stakes, stands out in the 6f juvenile Group 3 event (2.35).
