3yo filly who is unbeaten (6-6) over sprint trips, mostly in Group races, including two at the top level; only narrowly justified favouritism in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot (good to firm) most recently but it's hard to knock her record and there may yet be further advancement in terms of her rating; sire won the July Cup; receives all the allowances and duly warrants respect.

Top 6f 2yo, completing a notable hat-trick with wins in Group 3 at Royal Ascot, Group 2 at Newmarket (July) and Group 1 at Deauville (all good/good to firm); seemed fine at 7f (ran on after meeting trouble) when third in the Moyglare at the Curragh (yielding) on her final start but shaped like a non-stayer when stepped up to 1m for 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket on reappearance; remains open to progress back at 6f; leading claims.

Japanese raider who has made his name over 6f, winning two Grade 1s on home soil and placed in three British Group 1s, latterly the July Cup at Newmarket where he wasn't stopping at the finish; ran well on his only start over 7f (in 2024) and it was over 1m that he won his first ever race; an intriguing runner, though the glaring concern is that his peak efforts have come on good or faster ground and this surface is likely to be the softest he's raced on (effective on yielding back home).
