Aidan O'Brien has won this race just once in the last ten years despite having sent out ten runners and five short priced favourites. It may therefore be wise to seek value away from Carry The Flag and try Abletai at an each way price instead. Having pulled his chance away and raced greenly over 6F on debut, connections cut this son of Starspangledbanner back to a flat 5F here at Nass last time and enforced aggressive tactics, which certainly did the trick: having broken sharply and then laid down fast fractions in front, he became brave on the lead and had everyone under heavy pressure in behind. Although he was eventually nailed in the last stride by today's favorite, there was only a head separating the pair and his dead-heat for 2nd with Sun Goddess now certainly looks strong form. The 81 RPR he produced has been validated numerous times since and stacks up well against this group; with a perfect draw to blitz from the front once more, any step forward third out could make him tough to peg back and at this price, we getting fair value to see how far he can take them.
