In depth
Verdict
Frankie Dettori has won this six times in the eleven renewals and should make it seven via PIMPERNEL. A Listed winner at Newbury, she had no answer to Gamilati in the UAE 1000 Guineas but that was her first start since October and the run will have put her straight. She should have nothing to fear from Alsindi, Moon Spun, Colorful Notion or Mary Fildes, who all followed her home in the classic but Falls Of Lora is a different matter despite the fact that, like the selection, she's with Godolphin. She looked a nice prospect when landing a conditions event at Ascot in September and was by no means disgraced after missing the break in the Prix Marcel Boussac.
