Verdict
Royale Union is a half-sister to several winners, most notably Big Time Baby, and market support on her debut would be interesting. That said, HAMDA'S JOY has filled the frame on all four outings to date and she is the one to beat. Cixi should find this easier than her latest fourth in a novice at Goodwood and is worth a second look, along with Miss Gallant.
