Race Tip

CHARYN (1) is a Roger Varian trained G1 Queen Anne Stakes and Prix Jacques Le Marois winner. Undone by a tactical event when second in the G1 Prix du Moulin at Longchamp. There could be plenty of pace on here and can secure a third top-level success. Smart filly TAMFANA (13) may emerge as the main threat turning out just two weeks after she landed the 1m G1 Sun Chariot Stakes at Newmarket (Rowley). PRAGUE (6) was supplemented by connections for a fee following his 4L G2 Joel Stakes victory and makes the shortlist. METROPOLITAN (11) can provide a bold bid after following home Charyn in the G1 Prix Jacques Le Marois last time.
