FormscanBy Dan McEvoy - RED LETTER sets the clear standard here and should be able to get back to winning ways after narrowly losing out in a race of similar quality. This grey Frankel filly also has an entry in the Irish Oaks and her two-year-old form obviously reads very well, finishing second on two occasions to Irish 1,000 guineas heroine Lake Victoria. Joseph O’Brien runs three in the race with the apparent first-string being Wannabe Royal who was held behind the selection on her latest start, and it is hard to see a reversal of that form. The Ballydoyle contingent is headed by Estatic who never figured up in grade last time in the Ribblesdale, but the drop in trip by four furlongs may also aide her case. Finally, the ever-consistent Fiery Lucy can go close once more in this company.
