German stablemates Celebrity and Artistica have both won Listed races at Hoppegarten this year though the former’s success came over today’s trip and she’s preferred of Dominik Moser’s duo. Lucymai is weighted to figure though has come up short at this level in the past so a chance is taken on CLASSICAL TIMES. Now sporting the famous Khalid Abdullah colours on her first start since June, she won a Listed sprint at Haydock in May with Aidan O’Brien’s Different League back in third. The latter has faced even tougher tasks subsequently and is preferred to stable companion Most Gifted while Perfection and Rock On Baileys may well reverse last week’s handicap running here on much better terms with the winner Emily Goldfinch. Poet's Vanity has the past form to figure and makes more appeal than the progressive handicapper Magical Dreamer.
