Verdict

MY GENERATION was in the process of running a big race when running up a blind alley in a similar event here (7f) 4 weeks ago and is worth another chance. Aidan O'Brien has won this a record 7 times and Joan of Arc looks the pick of his pair with this extra 1f sure to suit, while impressive debut winners Shandra and Acanella also need considering.
