Verdict

PERFECTION recorded a career best when only narrowly denied at Pattern level at Goodwood last time and both a drop in class and first-time headgear are positives for the four-year-old filly. Shades Of Blue is another who wasn't beaten far in Group 3 company last time out and she ought to go well again. Tapisserie and Last Empire are both respected in their hat-trick bids.
  1. Perfection
