Since 2011 3yo’s have won six of the nine renewals with the market leader taking four out of the last five runnings of this event. Using that as a starting point it looks as though the two C&D winning 3yo’s
LIBERTY BEACH and Lazuli will be in contention here with a narrow vote given to John Quinn’s filly. A Group 1 third to Battash at Ascot backing up her smart Haydock win on return. Her main rival
Lazuli gets his toughest test yet but deserves his chance at this level given his performance here last time. Of the older horses the progressive
Dakota Gold has to be considered especially as he will have come on for his recent return with
Tarboosh and
Tis Marvellous capable of getting involved.
