Verdict

TRUE LOVE posted one of the better winning performances in recent years when giving Aidan O'Brien an eighth 1000 Guineas at Newmarket 3 weeks ago and with the ceiling of her ability yet to be ascertained, she can emulate Winter and Hermosa in completing a Guineas double for this yard. Precise and Abashiri were beaten a similar distance by the selection on reappearance last time and it would be no surprise to see them get closer here.
