Foaled 18 Apr. Half-brother to Polarisation, won five times between 6f and 1m 6f. This son of Frankel demands the utmost respect for an in-form yard and he could be a big player. Intriguing to note they put a tongue-tie on him for his racecourse debut. Official BHA Rating -

R ace Summary

Age Of Sail represents a trainer in fine form and the son of Frankel demands plenty of respect, but he may be best watched on racecourse debut. With that in mind, marginal preference goes to WAR HORSE, who found one rival too strong at this venue last month. Despite missing the break, the Marco Botti-trained gelding gave a good account on that occasion and this step up in trip may yield further improvement. Andrew Balding has an impeccable record with two-year-olds this year and Schmilsson could also mount a bold bid. Win: War Horse Danger: Age Of Sail
