Space Blues (11/8), Primo Bacio (10/3), Highfield Princess (17/2), Glorious Journey (17/2), Sir Busker (11/1), Pogo (14/1), Safe Voyage (16/1), Fivethousandtoone (28/1), Lord Of The Lodge (66/1)

Verdict

SPACE BLUES is a Group 1 winner without a penalty, and he shaped as if retaining all his ability when a close fourth in the Lennox Stakes at Goodwood last month. He should be spot on now and will prove hard to beat with conditions ideal. Primo Bacio was unlucky not to go close in Group 1s at Newmarket/Deauville after her impressive win here, so is a clear next best back down in class/trip.
