Verdict

Brilliant attempted to make all in a 7f Group 3 here last month and though having no answer in the closing stages was beaten less than a length. She had stablemate Content behind though the latter wasn't given a hard time in the closing stages. She had earlier finished over two lengths behind KITTY ROSE in a Leopardstown Group 3 and the winner is taken to maintain her unbeaten record. Dare To Dream made a winning debut at Deauville and wasn't beaten far in a Longchamp Group 3 next time and she'll enjoy the conditions. Royal Ascot winner Snellen can't have been right when last in the Group 2 Debutante Stakes here and none of the remainder can be dismissed in a competitive event.
