Race preview
Perfect Judgement finished second on his racecourse bow at Naas last month and is expected to go close along with the fifth from that contest, Barley Cove, who had stepped forward considerably from his first effort. Bergamasco and Grand City Hall are others who boast experience that are likely to be competitive, but it wouldn't be a massive surprise if a newcomer were to land this contest, with SWEET DELTA DAWN appealing most. Bred to be sharp, she is expected to know her job and gets the vote at the main expense of Ocean Bliss, whose half-sister, Commonwealth Cup fourth Ocean Quest, won on debut last season.
