Verdict

William Haggas won this with subsequent Oaks heroine Dancing Rain in 2011 and Oaks fourth Vow the following year. His filly FOREVER POPULAR is entered in both the Epsom and Irish Oaks and may well be good enough to score on her debut. Shoal is a sister to the high-class filly Midday and is another newcomer to consider ahead while Tidal Moon ran well at Lingfield despite finishing only fourth on her debut and Jasmine Blue also has experience of the track with a placed effort Kempton at the start of the month. Synopsis may be best of the rest.
