Verdict
Joseph O'Brien has won two of the last four renewals as against one for his father, and BELLESQUE is taken to improve on her debut here over a furlong shorter, although it's a quick enough turnaround. Ballydoyle newcomer So Lovely will quite likely be the best of these in the long term, but her top-class dam didn't strike until her third outing at two and she may have to give best on this occasion. The latter's stablemate, Exceptionally, may have learned enough from her first run to get into the money. [Mark Nunan]
