In depth
Verdict
Symphony Perfect has a nice pedigree but will probably benefit from a step up in trip and jockey bookings suggest the Kodiac filly Kodias Sangarius, who cost £68,000, is the stable’s first choice. Lucrosa is a half-sister to two juvenile winners and cost 47,000gns as a yearling and Acacia is also interesting but a few of those with experience have already shown promise. Pink Storm certainly wasn’t given a hard time when third at Newcastle and that kindness should be rewarded today in time and Fabiosa is another likely improver but AMBER DEW is preferred today after a nice debut at HQ – Ryan Moore keeps the partnership intact.
