Verdict

A cracking-looking renewal of the Temple Stakes, with ROYAL ACLAIM getting the vote. She quickly made up into a smart sprinter last term and looked to be still on the up when last seen at Longchamp. With just 5 runs under her belt she could make the breakthrough at the top level this year. Strong cases can be made for plenty of others, particularly Live In The Dream, Mitbaahy, Twilight Calls and the 3-y-o fillies The Platinum Queen and Dramatised.

  1. ROYAL ACLAIM (IRE)
  2. LIVE IN THE DREAM (IRE)
  3. MITBAAHY (IRE)
