Verdict
Aidan O'Brien has four entries. Key To My Heart had stable companion Wild Irish Rose behind when unlucky not to catch I'm So Fancy at Navan and should confirm the form though the one to take out of the race was Sea Of Women, who was making her debut and made a very promising start. The newcomers Jigsaw and Ruby Quest also represent Ballydoyle with the former, a Galileo filly out of a Group 3 winner, likely to prove best at this stage. Sansibar Jewel is related to several high-class winners and should make a cracking middle-distance performer next season but the vote goes to WHITE SATIN DANCER. David Wachmann's 260,000gns yearling made an excellent start behind the classy Hydrangea at the Curragh in August and has the scope to be very useful.
