Form & Verdict
Impressed in Newbury Listed (1m2f, good) in May and highly creditable third in the Oaks next time, when not seeing out 1m4f as strongly as the first two; game win in the Group 1 Prix de Diane (10.5f, good to soft) last time when clear with the runner-up and this up-and-coming 3yo has leading claims.

Form & Verdict
Listed win at York (1m2f, good to firm) last July and half-length second to Lilac Road in Group 2 Middleton Stakes there (1m2f, good) in May, when setting a steady pace; below par in the Wolferton at Royal Ascot but may be left alone in front here and this lightly raced 4yo is not ruled out each-way.

Form & Verdict
Ended last season with Listed win and Group 3 near-miss (behind Ville De Grace), and on the back of her reappearance run she was better than ever when reeling in Aristia in the Group 2 Middleton Stakes at York (1m2f, good) in May; has run well here and could still have more to offer; can go well.

Form & Verdict
Off the mark at the fourth attempt when winning a Listed race at York (1m, good) in May; deserves extra credit given she pulled hard early and her pedigree provides optimism regarding this step up in trip, but she could certainly do with settling better and has something to find with the principals.

5 yo Mare

OR: 115

Form & Verdict
Her highly progressive 2021 campaign ended with a staying-on third in the Group 1 Sun Chariot (1m) and she continued the fine work in May with 1m1f wins in the Group 2 Dahlia Stakes (good to firm) and Group 1 Prix d'Ispahan (good to soft); yielding to soft ground is a possible excuse for her below-par run in the 1m2f Group 1 Pretty Polly last time and she's well worth another go at this trip (dam 1m4f Listed winner); key player if bouncing back.

Form & Verdict
Won minor 9.4f races at Gowran Park on first two starts and bounced back from heavy Listed defeat at Naas when third in Group 2 at the Curragh (1m1f, good) 11 days ago with this tongue-tie added; stayed on well last time and the return to 1m2f could suit, but lots of improvement is needed.

Form & Verdict
Made it 2-2 when winning the Lingfield Oaks Trial (11.6f, good to firm) in May and, after finishing seventh of 11 in the Oaks (beaten about 7l), she was a good second in a Group 3 at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) last time; however, her limitations are likely to be exposed now back into a Group 1.

Form & Verdict
Hasn't really threatened in Group/Grade 1 races on her last four starts, namely the Irish Guineas, the Oaks, the Pretty Polly and the Belmont Oaks, but she's made the frame each time and was only about 1l behind Nashwa in the Oaks; she's the sole Ballydoyle representative and perhaps the first-time cheekpieces will bring out something extra; each-way possibilities.
