The signs are that the end of summer is bringing a new force into the reckoning in St Mark's Basilica and Coolmore's first-crop sire was at the forefront again on Thursday as his daughter Aylin captured Doncaster's G2 May Hill Stakes. Third last time in Goodwood's seven-furlong G3 Prestige Stakes, Al Shaqab and Amo Racing's 5-1 second favourite relished this stamina-sapping mile test and stayed on for David Egan to overhaul Pacific Mission (Lope De Vega) late on and score by 3/4 of a length.“I thought she was going to struggle three out, but the extra furlong suited her,” trainer Karl Burke said. “She ran well last time, but got in a little bit of trouble. The question is now whether to go again in the Fillies' Mile or Marcel Boussac. She was very fit today and so it's a little bit of a question mark as to how she will take this race and whether another run will be one too many.”So game!
