Verdict
Godolphin pushed the boat out to secure CLEAR IMAGE as a yearling though it is a little concerning that, having cost 550,000 guineas, he has already been gelded. Celtic Warrior realised a six-figure sum at the sales but may do better as a three-year-old. The same being said of Individualism as he is a half-brother to his stable stalwart Subjectivist. Strong Request probably isn’t one of Karl Burke’s top juveniles but, with form on the board, it would be no surprise to see him make his experience count this afternoon.
