Cosmic Vega is penalised for a Listed victory at Naas in May and was well beaten into third at Cork last Friday. He had Salt Lake City just behind in a Group 2 here earlier though neither made the frame. COMHRA comes out best at the ratings after a brilliant run in the 1000 Guineas at the Curragh but she has finished last in both subsequent starts at the highest level. In the hope she can recapture that earlier form, she's handed the vote as the remainder will all need to improve.
