9st 1lb |
Settling her has seemingly become a near-impossible task, but she nevertheless saw out 1m4f very well when second in the Irish Oaks and winning the Yorkshire Oaks; that Group 1 form gives her a big chance and she won on soft ground last term, but a very shortlived effort from the back in 1m2f Group 1 at Longchamp (hooded) 13 days ago was disconcerting. |

11th Jul 2024 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Won a 7f Listed race on good ground last year and runner-up twice at Group 3 level since, including on 7f Leopardstown reappearance (heavy; final start for Natalia Lupini); good start for her new Australian-based trainers when fifth of 20 under top weight in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) three weeks ago; leading form claims. |
11/4 |

5th 1 (22) |
21st Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Smart 2yo, beating the high-class Content (since close up at the Breeders' Cup and French 1,000 Guineas) in a 7.3f Listed race (good) second time out and second to the same filly in a 1m Group 3; another smart performance in a 7f Group 3 on her return when pushing close the Irish 1,000 Guineas runner-up; has earned top weight and Oisin Murphy earmarked her as one of his best rides of the week; left Natalia Lupini and now with new Australian-based trainers. |

Camelot filly is out of half-sister to Arc winner Danedream; debut winner of Deauville fillies' maiden (1m, soft) in August and creditable fourth in Group 3 Prix d'Aumale at Longchamp last month (winner well held since in Group 1); not one to rule out. |

3rd Oct 2024 Heavy 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Ran well on soft last season but below form on heavy at Newbury 12 days ago; outsider all four starts this term and has not made an impact in any of them (bled from the nose on reappearance) so others are preferred. |

30th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Below-form third when favourite for the 7f nursery at the meeting last year; fourth in a Curragh Group 3 next time was good but she has suffered three heavy defeats in Listed races since (bled from the nose on reappearance); plenty of doubts after that and she looks on a stiff mark anyway. |

towards rear but in touch with leaders early, headway 3f out, led on near side of group when nudged along over 1f out, ridden when briefly headed inside final furlong, kept on well up the centre inside final 110yds, pushed out |

13th Oct 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |

Ballydoyle filly who ties in with Caught U Looking on penultimate effort but looks rather exposed now and record stands at 1-8; stable has a much stronger chance with Ylang Ylang. |
50/1 |

5th 1 (9) |
7th Oct 2023 Soft 1m 0f 0y |

Taking her racing well and posted a career-best here a fortnight ago when front-running third in Group 3 Weld Park Stakes over 7f; not sure that warrants her current mark of 105 and possibly vulnerable but should again be thereabouts. |

Winner of the 2023 Chesham; again ran well at Royal Ascot last year, second in 23-runner Kensington Palace Stakes; sprang a surprise in a four-runner 1m1f Group 3 at Leopardstown on penultimate start; this may be too sharp on reappearance. |

Won a Cork maiden on debut and highly tried at Listed/Group 3 level since; potential pace angle here but wide draw is against her and she needs improvement to figure in the finish. |

Hasn't added to debut Cork maiden win last year but solid runs in stakes company, albeit below best last time at Sandown; cheekpieces now tried and seemingly place claims at best. |

9st 6lb |
Won a Group 3 over 1m2f at Naas early last season; hasn't progressed this year however, bit better latest when fourth in 1m4f Group 3 Ballyroan Stakes here last month, barely getting home; not an obvious contender for this step up in trip. |

Won a Group 3 over 1m2f at Naas early last season; fine effort when fourth in a 1m4f Deauville Group 2 last August; three 1m4f runs this year well below that level of form, the latest when 33-1 at Roscommon. |

Saxon Warrior filly cost 450,000gns and beaten odds-on favourite on Cork debut last month, never landing a blow but plenty green and not knocked about in finishing third behind Unreasonable; clearly well-regarded and should have learnt plenty from that. |

Bellewstown maiden winner (1m) was outclassed in a pair of Group 3 races on soft ground and didn't count on AW debut in C&D nursery in October; stiff enough task conceding lumps of weight all-round here. |

A Bellewstown maiden winner over 1m was outclassed in a pair of Group 3 races since on soft ground; certainly has a chance on AW debut. |
