Form & Verdict

Won Doncaster maiden (1m, soft) last October on debut, nosing ahead final strides; tailed off on soft in 7f Group 3 at Newbury in April but that could not be further from her true merit judged on the way she won Group 3 Musidora at York (10.2f; officially on good, probably firmer) 16 days ago, held up travelling smoothly, joining issue over 1f out and winning by 4l; good chance on pedigree that she will stay 1m4f, so she's in with a big shout.

Form & Verdict

20-1 when comfortable winner of a notable maiden at Leopardstown (1m2f, heavy) in April on second outing; slow start put her on the back foot when 8-11 for the eight-runner Cheshire Oaks at Chester (11.3f, soft) five weeks later and most of what followed was not on the bridle, but she produced a fantastic response from over 2f out and stormed 22l clear in deeply impressive style, regardless of lack of strength among the opposition; very different ground is forecast today but she's the one to beat.

Form & Verdict

Blossomed last autumn, culminating in soft-ground Listed win at Newmarket (1m); 25-1 for the 1,000 Guineas over that same C&D (soft) on reappearance and stuck to her task admirably from well off the pace to finish fourth of 20, admittedly way behind the first two; different ground and major work to do but, contrary to her pedigree, it looks as if she will stay beyond 1m.

400,000gns yearling; Sea The Stars half-sister to Royal Ascot 1m4f handicap winners Candleford and Atty Persse; 6-1 from 8-1 for maiden at Newbury (1m2f, soft) six weeks ago on debut when no match for the winner but beating the other 14, having been held up and travelled well; while that was promising, the Oaks is a huge step up.

Won at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) last August by 9l; 2yo Group-race efforts (third in Group 1 Fillies' Mile at Newmarket) gave her the best form going into the Lingfield Oaks Trial field on reappearance and although she never threatened Eternal Hope or Be Happy in that steadily run race, she did run on to finish on the heels of the runner-up in a bunched finish; not the most stoutly bred but this race could show her in a more positive light.

Half-sister to the same connections' Wonderful Tonight, who was a Group 1 winner on soft and heavy at 1m4f and 1m6f; all three runs have been in France, making most or ridden very prominently over 1m and about 1m2f on heavy, soft and very soft; won well in a maiden last October and galloped on resolutely to go down by just over 1l in two Group races this spring, latterly in the Group 1 Saint-Alary; whether she'll get her ground today has to be a concern, in part due to Wonderful Tonight's record, but she looks set to relish the extra distance.

9st 2lb

Won a Cork maiden on debut and running well in defeat since, finishing third in a Saint-Cloud Group 3 prior to a Listed second in Lingfield's Oaks trial; that form has been knocked since though and she has plenty to find.

Comfortable maiden win at Cork (1m, soft to heavy) on the first of two runs as 2yo; placed this season in Group 3 at Saint-Cloud (10.5f, soft; just behind Sea Of Roses) and Oaks Trial at Lingfield (1m4f, AW); 6-5 favourite in the latter and always prominent but Eternal Hope headed her 1f out and went on; there should be a very different rhythm to this race and she should still be open to improvement.

Plentiful big-race entries; comfortable maiden winner on last September's debut at Cork (1m, soft to heavy); disappointing 5-4 favourite in Group 3 one month later but she reappeared with a better effort at same level when third of eight at Saint-Cloud (10.5f, soft) six weeks ago; should stay and surely has more to give.

Form & Verdict

Promise on good to firm last July on debut; that's her only defeat, as she scored over 1m at each of the three Polytrack courses, before travelling much the best and scooting clear in a Listed race on soft at Newmarket, showing she stays 1m2f well (not sure to get 1m4f on pedigree); one of the top contenders on form and she's been progressing extremely well.

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.
