Verdict

Likely to come on for her reappearance spin here last month, AZAZAT looks the way to go. She is a half-sister to a winner over this trip, the step up to which promises to help unlock improvement, and she is evidently held in high regard (holds fancy entries). The Aidan O'Brien yard has farmed this maiden in recent years and the Ballydoyle representatives this time round, Milwaukee and Queenstown, rate the main dangers (in that order of preference).
