Form & Verdict
By Sea The Stars out of a French 1m1f-1m4f winner (including Group 3); rallied over 1m2f at Salisbury (good to firm) on debut; justified favouritism in novice race at Doncaster (1m4f, soft) four weeks ago in clearcut fashion and, although she needs a good deal more in this company, this Group 1 entry surely has plenty of scope for further progress.

Form & Verdict
Last two starts were on good to firm and narrowly her best form, when fifth of nine in a 1m6f Group 3 here and coming from last to second in a ten-runner Listed race over 1m4f at Pontefract; this demands more but she's lightly raced and could still do better.

Improved filly in second half of last season, finishing second in Group 2 Park Hill at Doncaster (soft) before easily going one better in a heavy-ground Listed race at Bath (1m6f again) in October; also went close in a 1m4f York Listed event on good to firm last August so drying ground and a shorter trip aren't major concerns; big player if fully primed after nine months off.

Does not look good enough if today's rivals are on song but her close third of 11 in the Listed Galtres at York (back up to 1m4f, good to firm) on latest start was career-best form and she ran on well from off the pace having been checked over 2f out.

14th start but only her second win when she upped her game markedly to win the Galtres at York (1m4f, good to firm; seventh attempt at a Listed race) three weeks ago in fine style, coming from off the pace; that followed a very close third in 1m7f Deauville Listed race and that's her only run beyond 1m4f, so there may be some untapped potential with this sort of stamina test.
