Tack looks the pick of those with experience but that’s not saying much. FIRST OFFICER is a full brother to three winners, including the Listed and Group 3 winner Sizzling. The booking of Ryan Moore has to be a plus for Roger Varian’s Galileo newcomer. Filistine, bought for £120,000 at the breeze-ups, should win races and the filly Thunder Queen looks another one to follow. Al Mubhir is by Frankel and also goes on the short-list and Swashbuckler should be monitored for future reference as he has a nice pedigree and cost 70,000gns as a yearling.
