In depth
Verdict
Espressoo has hinted at ability in her two starts to date and there are also possibilities about Atomise, who finished sixth in the Two Year Old Trophy at Redcar despite missing the break. Blaast has been unlucky not to have opened her account but she is far more exposed than SACRED JEWEL. The Godolphin filly was backed against the smart Zain Claudette on debut at Newmarket in June but pulled too hard and didn’t get home. After a break, she might be different proposition now.
