Verdict

There seems little point in opposing HYDRANGEA here. The proven Group 1 performer will be very hard to beat even conceding a 3lb penalty to her rivals and she's taken to land a second success in the race for her trainer. Goldrush and Xenobia are unexposed and can battle it out for the minor money.
