off the pace in last pair, never on terms
off the pace and always towards rear

mid-division, headway 2f out, stayed on inside final furlong, not pace to challenge

towards rear, never nearer

led 2f, pressed leader, led again 2f out, stayed on strongly final furlong, one to note
Murphy's Dream and Justcallmepete have the best form of those with experience but both step up in trip. Rockfire has shown little so far so this can go to a newcomer and Love Mystery cost a hefty 300,000gns as a first foal of a Group 3 winner. True Warfare’s dam is related to a Group 1 winner but GOVERNMENT is a half-brother to six winners, including the high-class Wigmore Hall, and Hugo Palmer’s grey gets a speculative vote. Kodiac Blue and Rogue Star are others to note.
