Update

2 Turenne - getting warm between back legs late.

Verdict

The quality of Bibe Mus shines through here and is easily best. The Bellhop next best.

Paddock updates

3 Galactique - okay, perhaps a little plain compared to a few, but has some size and isn't dismissed.

4 The Bellhop - red hood on but relaxed, good-looking type, nice sort, racey and attractive; very fit.

2 Turenne - has some size to him, relaxed and looks well, no issues.

7 Superkap - on toes, quite a taking sort, will easily make a chaser in time; fit, just needs to settle better.

5 Only One Blue - stocky, compact sort, little busy in the walk, but fine overall.

And the pre-parade is a waste of time. All horses straight to the parade ring.

Pre-parade

1 Bibe Mus - first in. Good-looker that's already filling out nicely. Walks well, touch of quality. Enough size to be carrying the weight. All positive at the moment.
