In depth

Verdict

Chad Brown has few peers on the Turf in the USA and has won the last four renewals of this. He runs three with Noble Beauty and Pricedtoperfection preferred to Last Waltz but they all have CATCH A GLIMPSE to beat. Mark Casse’s filly has won her last seven starts now including the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf last year where she beat Aidan O’Brien’s Alice Springs. The latter runs both Coolmore and Ballydoyle in this and that pair are closely matched on latest running in the French Oaks. But the latter didn’t get the cleanest of starts at Chantilly and this faster ground should suit.
