In depth

Verdict

The two with experience showed little on debut so this should go to a newcomer. The Hannon stable has sent out the winner of this nine times since the turn of the century, including the last two. BAHEER was a 100,000gns yearling and the son of Mehmaas can enhance that record ahead of the Wootton Bassett colt Battle Charge, who was an even more expensive purchase at 180,000gns. Time Signature is out of a mare that won over this trip as a two-year-old and he also makes plenty of appeal with Phone Tag and Rednblue Sovereign others worth a market check.
