Verdict

Fast ground is a worry for Ondeafears and Hanky Panky is preferred as she handled the going in the 1000 Guineas here last month when finishing a respectable seventh. The Ballydoyle filly can figure at this level but may find the four-year-old SLIPPER ORCHID too good. Mick Halford's charge beat Core Element over course distance before following up at Naas and also has the beating of Flic Flac on the form book. Gathering Power is up 9lb for a recent win over 6f and Hughie Morrison's Sharp And Smart will need to improve on her latest fourth at Goodwood to figure. Majestic Queen and Akira are lightly-raced types to note, especially the latter who beat subsequent winner Tropical Mist at Gowran last month.
