Formscan - FREE WIND won a top-class renewal of this contest 12 months ago and while she failed to get on the scoresheet again subsequently, she was only beaten a head in the Yorkshire Oaks. A reproduction of either of those efforts here would give the daughter of Galileo an outstanding chance. Bluestocking was a consistent performer throughout last year, going close in a couple of Group 1s, and is likely to be in the mix once again. Cases can be made for all of the remainder, but Sapphire Seas is the pick of them.
