MAYFAIR (IRE) (Justify) debuts for Ballydoyle in the maiden won two years ago by the stable's star Snowfall (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}) and carries obvious gravitas as the second foal out of the G1 Cheveley Park S. winner Clemmie (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). That full-sister to Churchill (lre) already has a black-type performer after Mayfair's full-sister Unless finished runner-up in this week's Listed Cairn Rouge S. and it is significant that Ryan Moore has opted for her over the stable's fellow newcomer Grateful (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). A daughter of the ground-breaking six-times top-level heroine Tepin (Bernstein), who was an $8-million purchase by M V Magnier at the 2017 Fasig-Tipton Kentucky November Sale, she provides a formidable back-up for Rosegreen in this intriguing card opener.
