Verdict
Exuma is by Galileo and related to several winners. His stable companion VAN GOGH is by American Pharoah out of the brilliant Imagine, who has already produced eight winners including Group 1 winner Horatio Nelson so looks the one to be on. Masen is by Kingman out of a 6f winner from a top-class family while Blue For You is by New Approach out of a winning miler. Toshizou is by Galileo out of a mare who has produced useful winners with her first two foals to race and True Conviction is a half-brother to three winners at around this trip. Liberado cost E120,000 and is by Lope De Vega out of an unraced Galileo mare.
