Verdict

A race in which the majority of the field arrive in excellent form. After just one start, the Frankel filly BONA FIDE could be absolutely anything at this point in her career and with more to come up in trip, she shades the vote. My Silver Nails and Artistic Melody are both respected in their hat-trick bid with the latter preferred with her form from last time already boosted by the runner-up.
  1. Bona Fide
