Verdict

Moonlight Sonata has the best piece of form with a second at Newmarket in September. She is preferred to stablemate Raddeh, who looks her owner's second choice on jockey bookings behind newcomer Markabah. June didn't shown that much progress when fifth at Windsor recently but BRANDYBEND should do better here. She was no match for Oaks entry Martlet when runner-up at Chelmsford recently but finished clear of the others and Frankie picks up the reins today. The 380,000 euros purchase Leading Design is a newcomer to note along with La Boheme and Seaworthy.
