Verdict

SOMEHOW has a fair bit in hand on ratings and can handle this drop in trip here by taking a second Group 3 success. The selection was successful over 1m1f when last seen in action and is likely to have too much for her rivals in this contest. Of the remainder Czabo disappointed in a Listed event last time out in France but showed last season that she's up to being competitive in a race of this nature having finished fourth in the Irish 1000 Guineas at The Curragh in May while the three-year-old Legitimus ran well twice in this company as a juvenile and represents a yard who have won this with three-year-old's in the past.
