Verdict

There was a lot to like about how LADY BOWTHORPE pulled clear of the remainder when runner-up to Palace Pier in the Lockinge Stakes at Newbury last month and she can take advantage of this good opportunity back against her own sex. Queen Power and Lavender's Blue, the pair who chased her home at Newmarket the time before, should again give a good account.

  1. LADY BOWTHORPE
  2. QUEEN POWER (IRE)
  3. LAVENDER'S BLUE (IRE)
