Verdict

John Gosden has three entries with Stiletto, a son of Frankel, perhaps the best of the trio after a better run at Lingfield. Carnival Craft finished last on her debut at Redcar but showed a bit more promise at Wolverhampton though Godolphin can dominate this with newcomers. Al Nayyir is a full brother to the smart Listed winner Al Dabaran and a half-brother to another winner but TAMBORRADA, who is also by Dubawi, is out of a winning all-weather miler from a top family and may be good enough. Ad Infinitum cost £210,000 being a half-sister to a Grade 2 winner in the USA so she's one to keep on the right side.
