Really nice fields especially for the Mile!

Good luck to all the usual suspects.

I love this!

Warhorse looked really good in the one race of his I saw...

In the MIle I only know one name. Embarrassing!

Whatever happened to ***** O'Reilly?

She ran in a G3 for 3yo fillies at Trentham just now, actually! But she didn't really feature.

Quintessential won it impressively, beating Capital Diamond and Artistic.
