J: William Buick

T: Roger Varian

Came from off a strong pace when winning the 1,000 Guineas over C&D (good ground; 28-1) in the spring; has run respectably, although with no obvious excuses, when fourth in the Coronation and Nassau Stakes since; should be thereabouts again but she'll need a personal best to land a second Group 1.

J: James Doyle

Cards dropped perfectly in the 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket (1m, good; came off strong pace for last-gasp win) but the Coronation Stakes didn't pan out so well for her; shaped both times as if she'll be suited by this longer distance; possibilities with further improvement still conceivable.

J: James Doyle

T: Roger Varian

Won at Southwell (AW) on sole 2yo start, then ran well in the Fred Darling; subsequently belied her 28-1 odds in the 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket (1m, good) where the cards dropped perfectly as she was favourably drawn and came from well off the strong pace (got up in the final strides); tactical matters aside, she holds major claims provided that form is backed up.

J: Silvestre De Sousa

T: Roger Varian

Has shown strong promise over 7f, winning at Southwell (AW) then very close third in the Fred Darling at Newbury (good to soft; Group 3) where she finished strongly once switched for a clear run; should be well suited by this longer distance; has fair bit to find on ratings but this twice-raced and well-bred filly brings potential.
