Verdict
City Of Stars is the only one with racecourse experience but was beaten four lengths over track and trip and will probably find a few of these too good. The Al Shaqab colt Dheban cost 240,000gns and is one to note while stablemate Wedge makes more appeal than another Hannon runner, Age Of Empire, on jockey bookings. Ryan Moore's presence on Grizzly Bear suggests the latter could go well and Carrington represents Godolphin. Academy House is out of a prolific mare but a speculative vote goes the way of Charlie Hills' SAHREEJ, a 160,000gns purchase as a yearling and half-brother to a couple of winning sprinters.
