Race preview
DRAGON SYMBOL was the bridesmaid on several occasions at the highest level in 2021, most notably when demoted to second in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot. The four-year-old can be forgiven his final outing of the year in the Champions Sprint, as it appeared to be one run too many, and a change of stables over the winter might yield further progression. Minzaal suffered an interrupted 2021 campaign, only making it out at the back end of the season, but the son of Mehmas showed enough to suggest he could be a major force in the sprinting division if getting a clear run of things. Vadream remains of interest in this sphere despite her maybe wanting a stiffer test than York provides and she is respected, along with Hurricane Ivor.
