John Gosden has won the last two of these and GALLIPOT, by Galileo out of the Group 1 winner Spinning Queen, is taken to complete the hat-trick. He made his debut here in October and really caught the eye, staying on nicely despite suffering interference when making headway. Everlong didn't run too badly in the May Hill at Doncaster on her final start while Hunt A Mistress made a pleasing return at Folkestone despite hanging badly left. Amaraja is in the Oaks at Epsom and the Curragh and that's hardly a surprise given her pedigree as she's by Galileo out of a mare who has already produced two pattern race winners from just three foals. Bashaash cost a lot of money and, like Four Leaves, is related to plenty of winners.
