In depth

Verdict

ALGHABRAH made a very promising start behind the strongly-supported Contingent and should justify her 1000 Guineas entry. House Call showed the benefit of her opening run with a much better effort at Naas and it shouldn't be long before she loses her maiden tag. Bucky Larson cost 50,000gns and is out of a mare who won on the all-weather while stable companion Georgie Hyphen is a half-brother to a winner in Italy.
