Verdict

Aardwolf made a winning start at Newbury last week but will do well to follow up giving weight to SPIRITOUS. John Gosden’s Godolphin colt has been placed in both starts so far, including at Haydock three weeks ago, and should make a bold bid again. The remainder make their racecourse debuts with Capital City also sporting Godolphin’s colours and Paul Hanagan preferring 450,000gns purchase Thaaqib to Hathiq. Nobly Born is a stablemate of the selection and a half-sister to Group 1 winner Peeress among others.
