Yet another two-year-old contest in which the market is likely to provide the biggest clues. Aidan O’Brien has won this with well-backed favourites in the last two years and ST JAMES’ SQUARE (NAP) will have no excuses from stall one. He is Dirt-Bred but by prolific sire War Front and out of a Grade 1 winner in the States. At $2.4million, connections will be wanting an early return on their investment. Rosa Albertine is a half-sister to five winners and it’s interesting that Dermot Weld throws her in against the colts. Sindhia and Valeria Messalina are other fillies worth a second look but the latter’s stable companion Psyche has already been through the sales ring three times. Daylight Come has a nice pedigree but looks to have a tough draw.
