Verdict
Lion of Mali and Kimbara best pair.
Parade ring updates
1. Three Non Blondes - Quite a sizeable filly, muscular sort, plenty of definition behind.
2. Sierra Sands - Good looking colt, full bodied, similar presentation to when he won last time.
3. Angel Gabriel - Heavy set type, doesn’t jump out on fitness.
4. Flight Control - Strong gelding with a big chest, fine but no better.
5. Aqua Bear - Big strong gelding, plenty to like.
6. Calling A Star - Deep girthed type but has plenty of definition.
7. Toastmaster - Plenty to like, in excellent order.
8. Kimbara - Really taken by this colt, very very fit and has a nice way about him.
9. Lion of Mali - Looks tremendous, very lean.
10. Daretobedifferent - No doubt that the filly is fit, very lean, just a little fussy.
11. Ice Cube - Less convinced on this Spencer runner, okay but no better.

Rocking Ends and Rapper's Delight best pair.
Parade ring updates
1. Tatterstall - Heavily sweating but easily managed with red hood, defined.
2. Rosario - Plenty of definition, Teal horses have been appealing in last few days.
3. Twilight Calls - Been a touch tricky in the pre-parade, strong and wayward.
4. Rapper's Delight - Pick of the two Spencer runners, fit and well.
5. Never Just A Dream - Should come on again for the run.
6. Star Chorus - Some definition but others present tighter.
7. Rocking Ends - Hard to see the team getting this horse fitter, so lean. Two handlers but easily managed. Eye catcher.
8. Our Cody - Late across the track, lean, no fitness questions.
9. Emperor Spirit - Wouldn’t have guessed he was backing up quickly, others appeal more on fitness.
10. Underwriter - Lengthy type, not an obvious sprinting physical, fit and fine.
11. Rhythm N Hooves - Fit and fine, no issues.
12. U S S Charleston - Tense and tight, like a coiled spring, others appeal more on fitness.

Godolphin 1-2 looks quite possible here, slight preference for Sorrengail. Hout Bay worth noting as over priced.
Parade ring updates
1. Acting Lady - Definitely one of the better models, has some presence and catches the eye.
2. Desert Sands - Some definition although expect to see better options; a little strong and fussy.
3. Desert Smoke - Lovely easy mover, should come forward for the run.
4. Hout Bay - Compact and together filly, one of the better models.
5. Jessica Lily - Big strong filly; little on her toes but fit for a debutante, should give a good account. Now getting upset, negative
6. Pure Majesty - Two handlers to offer reassurance, smaller, more together filly, will improve a touch.
7. She's Nice - Definitely fit for debut and curious rather than green, nothing to dislike.
8. Sierra Belle - heavy and needs the run, quiet demeanour.
9. Sorrengail - Quite taken by this filly in the outset and she continues to impress with each go round, lovely easy mover, has definition.
10. Speed of Sound - Little plain through the coat but has a fair level of definition.
11. Tansy Lane - No doubting fitness, small, slender filly, plenty to like.

Precise best, Evolutionist provides best alternative.
Parade ring updates
1. Blue Bolt - Big strong filly, never jumps out as the most appealing physical but similar profile to when she won at Ascot.
2. Jancis - Stressy and warm again, did the same at Ascot but didn’t show this behaviour earlier in the year, no fitness questions.
3. Balantina - Hasn’t progressed from a fitness perspective from Ascot as expected, thought she’d come on considerably and hasn’t.
4. Evolutionist - Lean and plenty of definition, probably preferred her at Newmarket - she looked spot on that day, but no major negatives.
5. Precise - Very similar to Ascot, fit and well. Started to fuss a little in the pre-parade at Ascot but she’s better here, much quieter..
6. Venetian Lace - Big, strapping filly, strong type as you’d expect to see from the yard. No issues but others have more class.
7. Venosa - Not the best physical in the front end, quite weak in the neck, nothing that stands out.

Valedictory preferred.
Parade ring updates
1. Roaring Legend - Deep girthed, strong type, walks well, another one where has some definition but expect to see better.
2. Beylerbeyi - Has looked better with each run this season and does so again; in good order.
3. Real Dream - Another runner with good level of fitness, Ian Williams team are hitting better order now.
4. Valedictory - Lengthy through the body and moves well, fit and plenty to like.
5. Asgard's Captain - Keen and ready to go, has got warm but no major concerns, tends to present fit.
6. Goblet Of Fire - Lean over quarters, can’t fault definition.
7. Majestic - Big heavy set horse, some rib definition but suspect we’ll see fitter.
8. Wine Dark Sea - Very relaxed type, quiet in the pre-parade but has sweated quite heavily, no fitness questions.
9. Oneforthegutter - Least liked of the Williams horses, should come on again for the run.
10. Pole Star - Heavily sweating under mesh rug, but very lean, no lack of definition.

Senorita Bonita preferred. No major negatives, good standard across the board.
Parade ring updates
1. Acclamation Star - A little busy and fussy, lightly on her toes. Good rib definition as you’d expect to see from the yard.
2. Alwaysanangel - Big filly, a ready made three year old and like to think she’ll keep improving through the year.
3. Etonnante - Athletic filly, leggy and lean, likeable demeanour to say she’s had little exposure to crowds, makes appeal. Looking increasingly babyish now tacks on, having a look around.
4. Jolivette - Big bodied filly and always is pleasing to the eye, looks in fair order but others preferred.
5. Libertango - Never one that jumps out physically, small and workmanlike. Fit again, little poor in the coat but similar comments applied when she won last time.
6. Ruby Moon - Lovely looking filly, walks well and makes plenty of appeal. Possibly doesn’t have the class edge in here but a really likeable physical.
7. Senorita Bonita - Well made filly, never overly stands out on fitness (been the same on her previous two starts), good attitude.
8. Troublesome Guest - Little plain compared to some but can’t fault fitness.

Between Archers Bay and Decade Of Time, Archers Bay edges it, lovely strong type.
Parade ring updates
1. Evanesco - Looks well enough and tends to present fairly similar, probably preferred at Ascot.
2. Laureate Crown - Has got warm (more than other runners) and whilst he’s very fit, second handler been added to keep level headed.
3. Archers Bay - One of the better models, built uphill and walks well, likeable.
4. Decade Of Time - Eye catcher early, big strong colt with a bit of something about him.
5. Princling - Very on toes and stressy, have sighted this behaviour before but concern in these conditions.
6. Heraldry - Can get tight and is showing some tension in neck and shoulders but no major issues, fine.
