Marvellous has been all the rage for this since her excellent win in the Irish 1000 Guineas. She was held up by Ryan Moore before delivering a devastating turn of foot to see off the gallant and consistent Lightning Thunder. She is bred to see out this extra couple of furlongs and she can give Aiden O’Brien a third win in this race since the turn of the millennium.
