Verdict

THORNBROOK was an excellent third in a Group 3 at Ascot 19 days ago and this lightly-raced 3-y-o is preferred to Villanova Queen, who was seen to good effect when winning a handicap at the Royal Meeting. Alfred Munnings is another low-mileage 3-y-o who needs considering.

  1. THORNBROOK (IRE)
  2. VILLANOVA QUEEN (IRE)
  3. ALFRED MUNNINGS (IRE)
