'He was a massive eyecatcher' - our panelists mark your card for the weekend

What’s your take on an open-looking Gladness Stakes?

Paul Binfield, Paddy Power Johnny Murtagh won this as a jockey on Kargali in 2010 and he can capture it as a trainer courtesy of Know It All. She’s run well in top-class company on her last two starts, including only just missing out on second in the final strides of the Prix Rothschild at Deauville last summer, and she can take advantage of this drop in grade.

Gordon Brown, broadcaster Lancaster House and Speak In Colours, the one-two from 2020, are in the line-up but four-year-olds have a decent record and I’m plumping for Johnny Murtagh’s Know It All. She goes well fresh and was just pipped by Love Locket in similar company last year and finished a close fourth to stablemate Champers Elysees in the Group 1 Matron Stakes last autumn.

James Burn, Lambourn correspondent Joseph O’Brien has been among the winners this week and the likable Speak In Colours is fond of the Curragh – recording form of 12112146 there – while he will be fit from a recent spin in a messy race at Meydan, in which his 11th-placed finish can be easily excused.
