    In depth

    Verdict

    Just The Judge won this for Charlie Hills' last year and the Irish filly CURVY looks to have every chance in this year's renewal. A disappointment in a Grade 1 at Belmont last time, this looks easier and she should have the measure of compatriot Devonshire and Sylvester Kirk's Sandown Group 3 winner Nakuti. The latter beat Talmada on that occasion while French raider Yaazy remains unexposed and has gone close in a Group 3 at Deauville. White Rose beat Eastern Belle at Saratoga last month but Strut The Course is preferred having landed a Grade 2 here on her latest start.
