Verdict

A couple of these ran at Royal Ascot last time. Dashing Rat had little chance in the Coventry but sets the standard in this rated 88 while HELLOMYDARLIN never figured on the heavy ground in the Albany Stakes. The latter had made a winning debut when scoring at Goodwood before that, however, and George Boughey’s filly gets another chance at this level. Sam Maximus won at Haydock on his introduction while Gis A Sub was narrowly beaten in a maiden at York and both are preferred to Hamilton winner Lethal Levi.
