If DIEGO VELAZQUEZ returns to the level he showed when landing a couple of Group races at Leopardstown last year he could prove a cut above this opposition. British raider Room Service has recorded 2 solid in-frame efforts in Group races over 7f this season and is second choice ahead of Irish 1000 Guineas runner-up California Dreamer, who had excuses when well held in the Jersey at Royal Ascot last month.

    Seemingly much improved when 2¼ lengths second of 12 to Lake Victoria in Irish 1000 Guineas over 1m here in May, although she very much had the run of the race from the front. Possible excuses when well beaten in the Jersey at Royal Ascot since.
