Successful in last year's 1,000 Guineas but the cards dropped perfectly (came off strong pace) and she is 0-5 since; no match for Cinderella's Dream on the other course here on penultimate start; chance of doubling her Group 1 tally largely depends on how the race pans out. |

Group 1 winner over 6f at two; the best filly at a mile in Europe last year, winning three Group 1 races over the trip, Coronation, Falmouth and Matron Stakes; forgiven a below-par effort in the Breeders' Cup Mile when last seen; yard hasn't hit top form yet this year but she is the one to beat if close to her best on return. |

9st 2lb |
Along with Opera Singer she's a daughter of Justify; versatile ground-wise; solid record reads 1211223, most recently shaping like the best filly in a strongly run 1,000 Guineas when she was collared only in the final strides having kicked for home far too soon in hindsight (eventually ran out of steam having looked the likely winner for most of the last 2f); could well reverse placings with Elmalka and Porta Fortuna with a more delayed challenge on the cards; highly respected. |

Notable French challenger; versatile ground-wise; developed into a smart filly last term, winning the Prix Robert Papin (Group 2) in great style then close second to excellent colt Vandeek in the Group 1 Morny (both 6f); although beaten favourite in the Imprudence (7f) on reappearance, it was a satisfactory trial considering she went down by only half a length despite taking a good hold; may settle better with the outing under her belt and a stronger pace this time; bred to stay 1m; respected on the figures. |

Won the Group 1 Sun Chariot (1m, good to soft) against fillies and mares last October before third in this (soft; beaten about 6l); some strong form in defeat in Group 1 and Group 2 races during a light campaign this season but there's a suspicion she's vulnerable against males in this hot Group 1. |

Three wins from five starts at two, including a 7f Group 3 at this venue and Group 1 Fillies' Mile at Newmarket; looked in need of further when staying on for a close-up fifth in the 1,000 Guineas on seasonal debut; disappointing favourite for the Oaks, seemingly a combination of failure to handle the track and lack of stamina; back to the drawing-board at 1m now. |

Frankel filly who cost 1,500,000gns as a yearling; three wins from five starts as a 2yo culminated in Group 1 Fillies' Mile success at Newmarket (soft) where she got up close home after trouble in running; 5-1 for the 1,000 Guineas there (good) on reappearance and made steady inroads from off the pace to go down by a length in fifth; seemed to be crying out for a longer trip in those 1m races and tops this field on those two pieces of form. |

Absent since disappointing effort in French Group 2 in June; has progressive form on home soil, including maiden win at the Newmarket Craven meeting and good sixth (not far behind Tamfana) in the 1,000 Guineas; raced only four times and may well rate higher still; remains of interest. |

Cost 320,000gns as a yearling; finished strongly to get up close home in 7f maiden at the Craven meeting here (good) last month, building on her 2yo effort; open to further improvement back up in trip and is a nice prospect for Jane Chapple-Hyam; however, bare form is a long way short of Guineas standard and there will be easier tasks ahead. |

Not at her best when a beaten favourite in a French 1m2f Group 1 last month but she's top class on her day and has a good record at Newmarket, even before winning the Group 2 Dahlia Stakes in May (1m1f) and adding the Group 1 Falmouth (1m) on the neighbouring July course; the glaring concern is the prospect of softening ground when she's been confined to good or quicker thus far. |

Won three 1m Group 1s against her own sex last year, namely the Prix Rothschild, Matron and Sun Chariot (all good/good to yielding); tackles 1m2f for just the second time on her seasonal return (wasn't strong at the finish when fourth in the 2024 Prix de l'Opera on previous attempt but it was only just short of her best RPR at the time); has to carry a 3lb penalty and wasn't at her best on her reappearance in 2024 or 2025; top mare but there are reasons to oppose her this time. |

Has won Group 1s against her own sex in her last three starts (1m, good/good to yielding), namely the Prix Rothschild, the Matron and the Sun Chariot; this is tougher and the last time she took on males she was sixth of eight in the Lockinge in May, but that was her reappearance and the fast ground may not have suited; this front-runner can make a bold bid. |

Last year's Irish 1,000 Guineas winner; last three races in cheekpieces; didn't look in love with the fast ground when just behind Cinderella's Dream at Royal Ascot but has since been typically tenacious in winning Group 1s at Deauville (good) and Leopardstown (good to yielding); looks as good as ever and she's uncomplicated filly who will race close to the lead; hard to knock. |

All four starts have been at the Newmarket tracks; 2-2 as a juvenile, including a soft-ground Group 3 in October, and she stayed on to go down by a neck in 7f Group 3 Nell Gwyn on reappearance; held every chance 2f out in the 1,000 Guineas (1m, good; 13-2) so ending up ninth of 16 was disappointing and she again hung under pressure; plenty to prove after that even though stamina can be found in her pedigree. |

Dubawi filly who has reached a useful standard of form over 7f and gives the impression she'll rate even higher over this extra furlong; 2-2 as a juvenile, including Group 3 success on soft going here, then finished a neck second behind Pretty Crystal in good-ground Nell Gwyn on reappearance (beaten favourite but ran satisfactorily while still seeming rather green); likely to build on that trial effort and has to be feared. |

Pulverised her seven rivals in this on her second outing of last season, scoring by a whopping 12l on good to firm; couldn't quite reproduce that high-class RPR at Group 1 level in five subsequent outings in 2025 but mostly ran well, including a close second in the Prix de l'Opera at Longchamp (1m2f, soft); didn't have much to spare at the line when 1-3 for a 1m2f Nottingham Listed race on reappearance but cruised through most of that contest and will likely be a lot closer to her best this time; again the one to beat in this. |

Made it 2-2 here when bolting up in the Group 2 Middleton Fillies' Stakes over C&D (good to firm) in May, and heavy ground excuses her below-par run in the Nassau three weeks ago; in between she was no match for Ombudsman in the Group 1 Prince of Wales's Stakes at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good to firm) and, while the return to York offers some hope, a career best is necessary. |

Impressive 7f debut on this track (good to soft) in April 2024 but the 1,000 Guineas next time was too much to ask; seemingly failed to stay 7f on handicap debut at Sandown last June and although she might yet make a sprinter there are some large questions to answer back from absence. |

For one so inexperienced it was a big ask in the 1,000 Guineas and she was duly sunk without trace; while that's readily forgiven, the form of her debut win at Newbury (7f, good to soft) hasn't worked out at all well; a hard filly to judge from a handicapping perspective. |
