In depth

Verdict

Kalopsia could start a short-priced favourite here for Aidan O'Brien though her pedigree is similar to many of her opponents who could prove better value. BABBLING STREAM is by Authorized out of a 7f winner and is a half-brother to a winner on the Flat in France so a chance is taken that he has the required pace for this. Cosmic Symbol is also Flat-bred and a half-brother to five winners while Head Turner is out of a winning sprinter and related to a 6f winner. The market should tell us more about their chances and those of the remainder.
