Verdict
Aidan O’Brien attempts to win this for the third time in succession and runs Promise To Be True. But she was never in contention in the Group 1 Moyglare Stud Stakes at the Curragh having landed a Group 3 at Leopardstown before that. Wuheida made a winning start in a Newmarket maiden and may well improve past Mark Johnston’s Baileys Showgirl but the unbeaten Dabyah is preferred to both having won a conditions race at Newbury for John Gosden in impressive manner. First Of Spring is one of two unbeaten fillies representing Jean-Claude Rouget but stablemate TOULIFAUT makes more appeal on the back of a Group 3 victory over track and trip when beating previous winner Normandel. She should make a bold bid with Deauville Group 3 winner Cavale Doree another to consider.
