By John O'Riordan - The Aidan O'Brien-trained KYPRIOS should win this en route to another bid for the Ascot Gold Cup. The six-year-old won the latter race in 2022 before injury forced him to miss last years renewal. Having finished runner-up in both outings last backend, the colt looked back to his best when easily winning on his reappearance at Navan last month. Yashin, who won this race 12 months ago, faces a much more difficult task with Kyprios in the line-up. To his credit, the Jessica Harrington-trained gelding kept on well when third behind the latter at Navan. He should be fitter here with that run out of the way. Queenstown, who split the pair at Navan, should once again be involved for minor honours.
