PLAY SMARTER
AUGUSTE RODIN did everything right at 2 and can become the fourth horse (and third from his yard) since 2018 to complete the Futurity/2000 Guineas double. His stablemate Little Big Bear is bred to stay 1m and would be a major threat if reproducing anything close to his Phoenix Stakes form. Chaldean suffered an unfortunate experience on his reappearance but his juvenile form stacks up well and he can prove best of the home team ahead of Sakheer, who is already smart but isn’t certain to stay 1m.

Stewards Note:

DIAMOND HAZE goes well at this track and should be all the better for his reappearance, so he’s taken to strike from a handy-looking mark. Anieres Girl caught the eye on her return at Nottingham and remains unexposed, with fellow 3-y-o Fahari also feared on the back of a career best.
