Dam Magical won this in 2018 and the Champion Stakes in 2019; this daughter's novice win here (soft) as 2yo preceded her 6l third in Group 1 Fillies' Mile at Newmarket last October; longer trips beckoned but she was not seen this season until five weeks ago when always behind in 1m2f Group 2 at the Curragh (6-1 from 10-1); needs huge overall improvement (about 9l behind One Look) but she should at least have come on since that reappearance.

Soft-ground 2yo winner last September who has been consistent in defeat this season over 1m2f-1m6f; none of those 2025 races were on soft but latest was on good to soft; perhaps a return to the mud would boost her cause.

J: Edward Greatrex

T: Ralph Beckett

Progressive 3yo on varied ground last season who won a Listed race at Goodwood (1m4f, good) in May on her 2026 reappearance; it was a revelation, though, when she responded so well to sustained pressure to assert by four and a half lengths in the Group 2 Lancashire Oaks at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) early last month; problem today is that the Group 1 Yorkshire version includes much more daunting opposition.

Progressive 3yo last season and she improved again to win a Listed race at Goodwood (1m4f, good) in May on her reappearance; this is tougher but the runner-up has franked that latest form and she could have more to offer for a trainer who excel with similar types; she's one to consider.

Form & Verdict
150-1 in the Albany at Royal Ascot; more competitive in her two starts either side and improved markedly to win eight-runner maiden at Leicester (6f, good to firm; made most, by a head) on latest; it may prove hard to concede the 6lb all round in this race, however.

Beaten over 7l into fourth at Ascot on her debut (5f, good) but that wasn't a bad run (form franked) and her subsequent Albany Stakes defeat shouldn't be held against her; her experience will be an asset this time and she should be capable of a bigger effort.
