In depth
Verdict
AMIRR is the first foal of a sister to an Oaks winner and cost 190,000gns as a yearling. A P McCoy's presence suggests a big run is expected. Wishing Wind is related to bumper winners and should go well for the Henderson yard while Late Night Lily is out of a bumper and hurdles winner and is another to note. Will O'The West is a half-brother to four National Hunt winners and may prove best of the remainder.
