17th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Mercurial mare who is smart on her day; won 1m Group 2 at Royal Ascot and finished a close second in the Group 1 Opera at Longchamp (1m2f, very soft) last year; the effect of the cheekpieces that prompted an improved fourth when bidding to retain her Ascot crown has worn off the last twice, though, including when a surprise market mover but beaten 24l in the Group 1 Nassau (1m2f, heavy) last time; wins nothing on that form, and the widest stall is not helpful, but she'd be a big threat if first-time blinkers fire her up. |

31st Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Won the Group 2 Duke of Cambridge at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last June and went close in the Group 1 Prix de l'Opera at Longchamp (1m2f, very soft); respectable fourth back at Royal Ascot last month but she hasn't been at her very best this season and looks vulnerable today; can lead. |

11th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Ran creditably in first-time cheekpieces (retained today) when bidding for a second win in the Duke of Cambridge Stakes but finished behind two of today's rivals and there seems no obvious reason why she should reverse the placings; ran as if something was amiss in this contest last year. |

9st 7lb |
Came into her own once encountering the mud last term, galloping on relentlessly with front-running rides to win Group 2s over about 1m6f at Glorious Goodwood (by wide margin) and Doncaster (this race); flopped on reappearance this May, however, and although she returned from wind surgery with a satisfactory run (considering the good to firm ground) last month, she surely needs an absolute downpour. |

Scored at Newmarket on sole 2yo start and ran well, one place behind Sumo Sam, in Listed race there on reappearance; disappointing in French Group 3 upped to 1m4f last time (bred to stay) but could easily bounce back if she takes well to first-time headgear; nowhere near fully exposed. |

2-7 as 2yo, the first win on good to firm; not totally discredited when well-held fourth this season over 1m2f in a Listed race at Newmarket and Group 3 in Germany, but she needs much better than that and others have more striking potential. |

Out of 1000 Guineas, Irish and Yorkshire Oaks winner Blue Bunting; 5-2, showed promise amidst greenness (hung left under pressure) when fourth on 9.5f Wolverhampton debut 19 days ago, with the reopposing Alpina Express narrowly behind in fifth; can be expected to improve; one of two runners for her top yard. |

Closely related to 1m2f AW winner Flag Festival (RPR 82) and half-sister to winners Blue Creek (UAE dirt; 94) and Blue Illusion (French 1m3f; 77); dam a top-notch performer, winning the 1000 Guineas, Irish and Yorkshire Oaks in 2011; looks the part on paper and no surprise to see her in the thick of it; stable also runs Tranquil Rose. |

Fourth of 19 when upped in trip in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) in 1m4f 3yo handicap at Royal Ascot (good) and another big run when Listed second on July course here (1m4f, good; no match for the winner); this progressive 3yo could again go well now back in a handicap after a break. |

Course winner who has performed well in her last two starts, finishing fourth of eight in a Listed contest at Newbury (1m2f, good) in May and filling the same position in the 19-runner King George V Handicap at Royal Ascot (1m4f, good) last month; needs a bit more to trouble a few of these. |
