Verdict
Maybe Definitely tried to make all at Doncaster last week and was only caught in the closing stages by Sir Michael Stoute's Mustaaqeem. The Stoute yard should know where they stand with the once-raced Grand Inquisitor, however, and he'll improve for his first run at Newbury when just behind Maybe Definitely, who had the harder race. Whistler Mountain is another likely improver but John Gosden introduces BAQQA, who is a full sister to a Group 3 winning miler. The Gosden stable won this last year with the top-class Wannabe Yours and could have another potential star on their hands. Hanagan prefers her to the same owner's Muwaalah.
