Verdict

ONE MASTER (NAP) is a real credit to connections and it would have been an injustice had repeated interference prevented her winning a Group 3 at Goodwood last time. She is effective from 6f to a mile but this is her best trip and she should take all the beating again. Shine So Bright took the notable scalp of Laurens when making all in this last year and has probably been aimed at the race again while smart sprinter Brando is a fascinating contender having only a second run over this trip. Safe Voyage is a real 7f specialist with a very good strike-rate but the ground may have dried out too much and he did finish behind Escobar at Goodwood. San Donato and the three-year-old Threat may prove best of the rest.
