Verdict

CLASSICAL SONG shaped like a winner in waiting when runner-up on her debut at Glorious Goodwood. The winner of that race was second in a Group 2 in France next time and this daughter of Lope de Vega can strike at the second time of asking. Godolphin's Beautiful Love looks the chief threat unless the betting vibes are strong surrounding newcomers such as Inherit and/or Skywoman.
