Verdict

The betting may offer some clues but EMBODY is a sister to the high-class Expert Eye so gets a speculative vote. Owen Burrows won this with a subsequent Group 3 winner in 2021 and runs Alyanaabi while Indigo Point cost 300,000gns and Labalaba was sold for £210,000 at the Goffs Breeze-Ups in April. Mission To Moon is related to five winners and is preferred to Darroch.
