In depth

Verdict

AUNT VIOLET has placed over 6f in both outings so far and was clear of the rest when beaten a neck at Ascot last time. This longer trip should suit and she’s preferred to Mubhijah, Cruise and Godolphin’s Tomouh Dubai. Catch A Star is another Godolphin runner and the newcomer is a half-brother to a Group 1 winner while Rab Havlin prefers to Queen Fleur to Sentimentality. Beautiful Star can include a Group 2 winner among her winning relatives and is another newcomer to note.
