Verdict
A poor race which may go the way of newcomer Rileys Dream. Her mother won six races from 7 to 10-furlongs and comes from the same family as St Leger winner Bruni and while she will ceratinly stay further in time, she can prove to sharp for her rivals. Bonnie Lad would have a chance if he can reproduce his close third to Kool as a juvenile, while Rosie Starlight, who has had plenty of chances, may be good enough for minor honours.
