Three-year-olds have an excellent record in this as does Aidan O'Brien, who has won the last two with fillies from the younger generation. He saddles a trio this time with Ryan Moore on board Goddess but she hasn't shown much in her two starts this campaign. Red Tea won a handicap here in May then followed with a cracking effort in a Group 2 on a return visit. She went to Ascot for the Duke Of Cambridge Stakes but had no answer to MOVE SWIFTLY, who beat her 9l. William Haggas' filly has never been out of the money in eight starts and should continue to make progress. Normandel beat Hand On Heart a head in a Naas Group 3 in March and there's nothing between them again.
