Verdict

Aidan O'Brien trained the winner of this last year and CLEMMIE appears to give him a good chance of landing back to back renewals of the race. She is still improving and she's taken to reverse the form with Mistress Of Venice who finished ahead of her at Royal Ascot. The former won a Group 3 at the Curragh last time out and while she may enjoy a step up in trip given time, she looks up to taking this contest. Nyaleti is another who may want further than this but she ought to give it a good go from the front and can't be ruled out provided her jockey gets the fractions right on the front end.
  1. Clemmie
  2. Mistress Of Venice
  3. Nyaleti
