TOP TRENDS:

  • Look for horses that have won over at least a mile

  • A win at Group 3 level or better is important

  • Must have run at least once this season

  • Stick with horses that were in the frame last time

  • Four-year-olds have a good record

VERDICT:

Only HYDRANGEA and Tomyris fit all the trends with the former getting the nod thanks to her proven Group 1 form. This is one of the few races at the meeting that hasn’t been an Aidan O’Brien benefit but that should change today. If you don’t like backing favourites then Tomyris is the one for you.
