Best on good or quicker ground; has progressed as a 4yo, proving a strong finisher over the straight 1m here when winning the Kensington Palace (good to firm; just her second run at the distance) in June; ran flat when returned to 7f in July but this looks more her trip now; can go well.

Tough mare who won two handicaps around this time last year, scoring at Windsor (6f, good to firm) and following up at Goodwood (7f, good) 18 days later; registered plenty of other good efforts last term and was back on the scoresheet with narrow win at Yarmouth (7f, good) 11 days ago; something to find on the figures but she's the type to make her presence felt.

Progressed last term; pick of her efforts came when fourth in AW Group 3 (6f) in June and when beating all bar Royal Velvet in July course handicap (7f, good to firm) the following month; will need to be near her best to make a winning seasonal debut but was beaten only a nose on last year's return.

In the same ownership as Miss Lamai and finished just in front of that rival when third of 24 in last season's Queen Mary; unplaced in three starts this year but looks to retain all her ability, faring better than the result when sixth in a strong Listed race at Cork (5.5f, good) last month; a big run at rewarding odds can't be ruled out in this her first handicap.

Kept on for second on handicap/seasonal debut at Goodwood (7f, good) in May and another big run when sixth of 25 in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot last month (1m, good to firm; favourite); the drop back in trip isn't an obvious positive but this progressive 3yo is still firmly in calculations.

Progressive mare who scored for the eighth time when beating 18-runner field at Newmarket (7f, good) at last month's Craven meeting; might need some luck in running if the field gravitates to the stands' side but thoroughly deserves this first crack at a Pattern race, with the ceiling of her ability probably yet to be reached.

Steady improver who scored three times last year, including here (1m) in May and on the July course (7f, also good to firm) two months later; also landed valuable big-field fillies' handicap at York which bodes well for this test; should be ready to roll on this return and she's much respected.

The winner of seven of her 18 starts, three of the wins coming this year (including both here and the July course); finished with a flourish to beat 17 rivals at York's Ebor meeting five weeks ago and a 5lb rise doesn't look excessive; drying ground in her favour but dropping to 6f asks a new question of her; this is likely to be well run, however, and she's a contender.

Form & Verdict
Lightly raced 4yo who has been progressive on AW this year at up to 7f; faced tough task on turf debut when down the field behind Miss Information at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month; may benefit from this drop back in trip but she needs to prove her effectiveness on grass.

Game effort to win a Newmarket handicap (6f, good to firm) last July and she is now 4lb lower; bounced back from some modest efforts when just missing out in a 7f handicap at Yarmouth 19 days ago (good ground; cheekpieces first time), pulling clear with a mare who has since run well in a Group 3; might not have to work too hard to get the stands' rail and she looks to hold strong claims.
