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.

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).

Very useful 3yo but finished only eighth, albeit best of the near-side runners, in the Commonwealth Cup for 3yos at Royal Ascot when bidding to follow up his trial success over the same C&D; bare form of the latest effort gives him work to do with Venetian Sun and Division; furthermore, it took his Group 1 record to 0-3.

A better sprinter than the bare form suggests as he hasn't had much luck this year, having to make a detour when a fast-finishing third of 22 in the Group 1 Commonwealth Cup here (6f, good to firm) in June and seemingly not as well suited by the track at Newmarket when fifth in Group 1 July Cup next time, when also having to negotiate a difficult draw; he only just failed to win a Group 1 at Deauville (6.5f) since and looks sure to go well back here.
