In depth

Verdict

Ezeliya and Whisper A Prayer both looked in need of experience when behind Content at Leopardstown and look certain to improve. The latter's yard is also represented by Into The Groove, a €180,000 half-sister to a Grade 2 winner in the USA. With Style has a smart pedigree and will have learnt plenty at Leopardstown in mid-summer while Wendla is related to numerous winners and should be well suited by today's trip. FLIGHT OF FANCY is a full-brother to six winners including Johannes Vermeer and just gets the nod over stablemate Get, a 360,000gns daughter of Galileo who is related to numerous winners.
