So the Nassau Stakes G1 at Goodwood Thursday presented no major challenges for either the daughter of Frankel or her trusty pilot, whose husband had to watch her pass and settle for third on Lilac Road.  In between the Marquands was a 40/1 shot Aristia who was 1 ¼ lengths adrift.

Nashwa and Hollie will probably now go to the Prix de l'Opéra at Paris on Arc Day and then possibly the Breeders' Cup f&m Turf.

There was a similar margin in the Richmond Stakes when New London won for Appleby-Buick with Deauville Legend 14/1 the bridesmaid and Hoo Ya Mai third.  New London is now en route to the St Leger,

At Galway on Thursday our selections are still running or detoured to the bar which is what we should have done!  Tudor City 22/1 won the Galway Hurdle from Jesse Evans 9/1 and Prairie Dancer third.
