FormscanBy Michael Graham - Aidan O'Brien has landed this race on 12 occasions and his three runners are respected on their seasonal reappearances. His UNQUESTIONABLE looks a leading contender after successfully stepping up to 1m in a Grade 1 at the Breeders' Cup in Santa Anita. Richard Hannon's Rosallion sets the standard with a rating of 118 and a runner-up berth in the Qipco 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket. He is by a sprinter, though, and this more galloping track may not be as ideal for him. O'Brien's River Tiber is interesting as he bids to graduate from the sprinting ranks, while Andrew Oliver's Bright Stripes is one that could go better than his odds suggest.

Quotes on Mountain Bear (IRE)
You'd be delighted with him. He was green first time and he was still a bit green today. Wayne (Lordan) rode him the first day and he liked him. He finished sixth in a good maiden (at this track). He was more professional today, but Ryan said when he got there he was still very green. He's a good cruiser and he shows plenty of class through a race. He's a big, powerful horse, he's a big No Nay Never and they are big strong horses with loads of natural speed.

Quotes on River Tiber (IRE)
I'm delighted with him. Obviously, he made good progress from Navan and he just needed that as well,. Navan was tough, soft ground, there wouldn't have been much of an edge put on him but that will leave a lovely edge on him. Ryan was delighted with him, he said he got a little bit lonely and idle in the last half a furlong, but we couldn't be happier with him. He had progressed plenty without us really having to chase him. We thought this race would bring him the rest of the way and if everything stays well we should be able to let him coast into Ascot now. We have a choice at Ascot. Little Big Bear is going to run next week, over six at Haydock, and he would have the option of going to the Jersey over seven if Little Big Bear went to the Commonwealth Cup. This horse is going to come forward again, he's still a little bit tubby but he's coming. It will depend on where Little Big Bear goes. It always looked like he'd get seven. Ryan said today he was surprised that he quickened as much as he did.

Quotes on Take Me To Church (IRE)
He’s a right little horse. It’s nice when a plan comes off and to bring up the hat-trick by winning the Madrid is a great result,. He’s a turf horse really and I knew what he did in Dundalk wasn’t going to be what he could do on turf but he still won twice. He’s progressed with every run and it’s a fantastic result. I’d probably be in favour of having a go at the Gladness at the Curragh over seven, all going well. He has lots of options. He did win impressively. You don’t mind foregoing their handicap mark when they win a premier handicap in that style and you know you have a black-type horse.

Quotes on Unquestionable (FR)
We're delighted with him. We felt he'd appreciate the step up, it was big ask to throw him in over five first time in a Stakes race, he's going to get even further than this probably. Ryan was very happy with him. He went to the line very strong. It's very hard to beat a run and he had a good run. He looks like a Coventry horse.
