This Listed 3yo mile usually is a legitimate guide to either the G1 2000 or G1 1000 Guineas but just a paltry five runners contested it this year. The winner Hall Of Fame is a player for the 2000 Guineas and demolished this field but just how strong it was seems very dubious indeed. Hall Of Fame led and got away with a very soft sectional early and then started to quicken a tad across the top before making it a sprint home and the colt sped right away to win by five lengths eased down the closing stages. He clocked 1:36.94 and was winning his third race from six starts and his first at blacktype. Stephenstils, a maiden, recorded his fourth runner up finish today from six starts while Cobblertothestars, also a maiden, was a distant third beaten nine and a half lengths. Leading Role was a poor fourth and his only win came last season and he has not come up at all this time in. Ave Maria settled last and stayed there with the maiden filly beaten almost twenty lengths. Hall Of Fame was far too good but so he should be when allowed to dictate and then sprint hard from 400m plus three of the opposition are maidens. The colt may be a G1 2000 Guineas (1600m) chance but beat nothing of note whatsoever here with the one positive being it was a track gallop and would have taken nothing out of him at all.
