Formscan - Substance over aesthetics has been the order with MINNIE HAUK, whose progression has been efficient and professional. The daughter of Frankel started her three-year-old campaign with a cosy success in the Cheshire Oaks before establishing herself as the leading middle-distance filly of her generation with Classic wins at Epsom and the Curragh. With Aidan O'Brien bearing down on a record-equaling ninth success in this race, the mount of Ryan Moore is the ready pick of the Ballydoyle pair, although the Ribblesdale winner Garden Of Eden is a high-class second string. The progressive Estrange and Qilin Queen are here on merit and also command respect.
