In depth

Verdict

Izadore is selected ahead of Italian Romance and War Of The Roses. The answer to this race could be Izadore. Ed Dunlop's filly has enough form to be seriously considered, particularly when third to Early Evening at Nottingham in July. She has had a run on the all-weather too and has a good chance to earn those all-important winning brackets. Chart Oak showed promise when third on his racecourse debut in February although the form is not strong. Italian Romance has shown enough promise to be considered. War Of The Roses cost 40,000 guineas, has plenty to like on breeding and could go well. Fondness has shown some promise, as has Where's Broughton, although the form is not strong. Overall, though, the vote stays with Izadore. Once again, though, the selection is Izadore.
