G2 Silver Slipper winner Home Affairs looked good winning his trial this morning.

I Am Invincible colt Home Affairs was having his first trial this time in and looked big and strong. He led all the way to win his heat for Group and Listed horses over 900m by the best part of a length in 56.12 seconds. The trial was run on the course proper with the cones set out wide.
 


Estijaab’s little brother Remarque was having his second trial back and was asked to settle after jumping before powering to the line to win his 900m heat by a length in 54.27 seconds.
 



Second in the Group I ATC Champagne Stakes and second in the Group I ATC Sires Produce, Fastnet Rock colt Hilal looked in great shape for his return. He surged to the line under a hold to win in 55.78 seconds and may not a Group I bridesmaid for long.
