Verdict

Several appeaing types to choose from with REGATTA DE BLANC marginally preferred to Harrys Hope, Lady Balko and Moonlit Potter. The selection bumped into a progressive one at Ascot on her first run in open company over fences and there should be more to come from this lightly-raced 6-y-o. My Silver Lining needs to get back on track but she will be a danger to all if able to do so.

  1. REGATTA DE BLANC
  2. HARRYS HOPE (IRE)
  3. LADY BALKO (FR)
