Verdict
Mimikyu represents last year’s winning connections but recent efforts suggest last year’s Park Hill winner is best over 1m6f. Sea Silk Road returned to winning ways in the Pinnacle Stakes over track and trip with both Poptronic and Time Lock behind and has decent claims but a chance is taken ARISTIA returns to form. The Hannon filly ran below par on her reappearance but landed a Group 1 in France last term having earlier finished runner-up in the Nassau at Goodwood and she looks worth another try over this longer trip. Luisa Casati and Peripatetic are Listed winners with something to find in this company.
