In depth

Verdict

The market will certainly prove the best guide to division two of this maiden with a number of the top yards being represented. Onceuponatime, a 65,000 guinnees purchase, hails from the Chapple-Hyam yard and does particularly well with the owners horses. He makes no immediate appeal on breeding but only the market can tell us beforehand of what is expected. Charm School, a 180,000 guinnees purchase and Tartan Gigha are others that deserve utmost respect but we will side with Onceuponatime.
