Verdict

Sleeper hasn't done a lot wrong this summer but is still creeping up the weights. Kikonga is starting to look well treated and Louis Steward's claim will aid her cause. Her stable is going well and she's a threat but the flashy REWAAYA could be anything and is taken to score on her reappearance having won her maiden in a canter at Leicester in May. She's preferred to more exposed stable companion Ski Lift and Godolphin's Desert Snow, though Asyad beat a good yardstick at Leicester in July and shouldn't be underestimated.
