FormscanBy Gary Carson - GREAT BARRIER REEF (1) comes here after being taken out at Deauville last Sunday and can make a winning return after a little break. The No Nay Never colt was last seen completing a hat-trick in the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot. He still looked a touch green then, drifting left when on his own in the centre, and there could be further improvement to come. Velozee looks the obvious threat, getting a nice chunk of weight. She ran a fine race to finish third in the Phoenix Stakes, behind Sun Goddess, over course and distance earlier in the month. Livenka was a cosy winner of the valuable Ballyhane Stakes at Naas last time and deserves a shot at this level.
