A field of eight has accepted for the last leg of the 2YO Triple Crown and Tassort’s brilliant daughter Manaal is the only runner that has come through the first two legs of the series coming fifth in the Golden Slipper (1200m) and then winning the Group I ATC Sires Produce Stales (1400m).

She has to stretch her brilliance out to a mile this time and standing in her way are some talented colts and they are all by first season sires too.

Broadsiding (Too Darn Hot (GB) and Linebacker (Super Seth) are last start stakes-winners, while Fearless (Pierata) and El Castello (Castelvecchio) are also in the mix so five of the eight runners are by first season sires!
