Final thought

Kew Gardens will look to enhance his chances of being a Classic prospect in the coming weeks when he makes his seasonal reappearance in the Listed Feilden Stakes.

It could cap off a fantastic few days for his sire Galileo, who came to the fore on Monday when two of his daughters were responsible for eyecatching winners Jaega and Sevenna Star, and further strengthen his hand as the dominant sire of his generation.
