Wootton Bassett filly is the fourth foal out of the brilliant Minding; half-sister to Group 1 juvenile winner Henry Longfellow (National Stakes); looked promising when winning over C&D on debut; was relatively easy to back as favourite, and the well-fancied runner-up had 7l to spare over the third; trainer has won this in four of the last six seasons.
