Verdict

The regally-bred DIAMOND RAIN looked a smart prospect when following up her debut win in a Newbury listed event last month and, with scope for plenty more progress over this still longer trip, she's a really appealing candidate. Kalpana has progressed significantly with each run and heads up the opposition, along with You Got To Me, who stuck to her task in admirable fashion when fourth in the Oaks at Epsom.

  1. DIAMOND RAIN
  2. KALPANA
  3. YOU GOT TO ME
