One of only three defeats in 11 starts came in this race 12 months ago, despite delivering career-best form at the time in finishing second; she returns on the back of a faultless campaign, the last of three Group 1s her most commanding performance yet in the Matron Stakes at Leopardstown; she sets the bar high as it is, and her upward curve might not yet have reached its peak; if holding her form she should win.

T: Andrew Balding

Seven-time winner has shown improved form this year to win all four starts; began with a Goodwood Listed race before taking the Group 2 Duke of Cambridge Stakes, then claiming the Falmouth Stakes and Prix Rothschild; has beaten Precise in both those Group 1s, but only narrowly last time; has to remain at her best to do so again, but is still the one to beat.

Runner-up in the Group 1 Sun Chariot on the other Newmarket course last October (1m, good) and this lightly raced 4yo made it two from two for this year when winning the Group 2 Duke Of Cambridge at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month, travelling well to beat Jancis by just under 2l; that latest performance suggests she's capable of landing a Group 1 prize; key player.

J: Colin Keane

Unraced at two; progressive filly who won Sandown Listed race (good to firm) last July and rounded off 2025 with fine Group 1 second at Newmarket (good; Cathedral fifth) in October; asserted late to beat Kon Tiki going away at Goodwood (also 1m, good; Shes Perfect third, Arisaig fourth) on her comeback last month, indicating she's set for another good campaign; leading contender.

J: Colin Keane

T: Andrew Balding

Lightly raced and progressive filly who completed a hat-trick in a Listed race at Sandown (1m, good to firm) last July; held in second in her final two runs last season but the first was a Group 3 and latest was in the Group 1 Sun Chariot Stakes at Newmarket; sets the standard on this big drop back in class and she's a strong contender on her return.
