Verdict

Having fetched 280,000 gns at the sales, Military Parade should be noted for positive signals in pre-race trading. The stable have placed their horses well here in 2017 and this rider has a high strike rate for them. On pedigree there have to be fears about his ability to get the trip and preference is for KARAWAAN. Sir Michael Stoute's runner was a costly failure last time but he appeared not to see out the trip on the soft ground. He split a pair of horses rated at 90 or above on his Newbury reappearance and that standard would be good enough to win most races of this type around here. Perfect Spy should improve on her Newmarket debut and rates the best of the rest.
