Formscan By Tom Weekes - SIMPLY ASTOUNDING indeed has a breathtaking pedigree, being by Wootton Bassett and out of top racemare Minding and debuts at a nice time of year for Royal Ascot hopefuls. Her trainer has won this race three times since 2018 - when high-class Fairyland scored and while the selection will ultimately graduate to longer distances, Minding won her maiden at this distance, prior to winning seven Group 1 races. Spring Is Here is by a leading stallion and notably is a sister to quick Group 3-winning sprinter Castle Star while Sunday River is out of a winning dam but debuts in blinkers.
