This looks well up to the normal standard of this fine race and Lily Agnes winner No Lippy would have been the selection but for being drawn on the outside. Pearl Of Qatar, who gained many admirers when scoring here last month, is another with a wide berth though not as wide as Vikivaki, who very nearly scored at Ascot in the race where 1/7 chance The Irish Rover finished last of four. Dame Gladys battled on to score at Nottingham but will need to raise her game again but Wedding Date, an easy winner at Chester and a close fifth behind Vintage Brut in the Listed National Stakes at Sandown, looks certain to go well. KODYANNA is very speedily-bred and cost connections £180,000. She made a very pleasing start at Nottingham, despite running green, and can land this nice prize for Richard Fahey and Paul Hanagan.
