21st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Acts on soft and good to firm; smart filly who has blossomed this season, winning notable 1m2f races at this course (Group 2; easily) and the Curragh (Group 1) then creditable second in the King George at Ascot back over 1m4f; she is 2-3 at this distance and can't be ruled out. |

2nd 8 (9) |
27th Jul 2024 Good 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Consistent in defeat last term; has regained the winning thread and looked better than ever this season, routing her opponents in Group 2 at York (good) then following up in Group 1 at the Curragh (yielding to soft), both over 1m2f; should be as effective back at 1m4f; cheekpieces (worn twice, including for reappearance win) are now reapplied; smart filly who could well prove capable of further improvement in her current form; big player. |

in touch with leaders, niggled along over 3f out, switched left and headway on near side of group from over 2f out, ridden and went second but 3 lengths down over 1f out, ran on inside final furlong, led towards finish |

22nd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Won at York in 2022; registered one Group 1 win that year and one (1m4f, good to firm) in 2023, with two close calls and she had another of those in the Pretty Polly at the Curragh (1m2f) this June, collared near the finish having kicked for home over 2f out; again raced wide in the Nassau at Goodwood last time but did not settle so well and found little from over 1f out; the clear form pick, judged on 2024 even, but she's been at that level only once this season. |
7/2 |

6th 2 (10) |
1st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Two Group 1 wins; acts on good to firm; inconsistent in her last four races but went close in the Pretty Polly at the Curragh (1m2f, yielding to soft) latest, collared near the finish having kicked for home a bit too soon in hindsight; leading player provided she remains in similar form. |

took keen hold, midfield early, went second from 6f out, joined leader over 4f out, led going okay over 2f out, ridden and 3 lengths ahead over 1f out, reduced lead and idled inside final furlong, headed towards finish |

9st 1lb |
Settling her has seemingly become a near-impossible task, but she nevertheless saw out 1m4f very well when second in the Irish Oaks and winning the Yorkshire Oaks; that Group 1 form gives her a big chance and she won on soft ground last term, but a very shortlived effort from the back in 1m2f Group 1 at Longchamp (hooded) 13 days ago was disconcerting. |

1st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Group 3 and Group 2 winner who has bits of form at the top level; however, she has something to find on 2024 efforts, latest behind Emily Upjohn in the Pretty Polly; doesn't look poised to break her Group 1 duck. |
40/1 |

4th 3 (6) |
29th Jun 2024 Good 1m 2f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Has won only twice but has strong form, including Ribblesdale second last year (Bluestocking third); improved with cheekpieces to land Group 2 Blandford Stakes over C&D in September; third in Prix de l'Opera, not disgraced in sixth behind Inspiral at Breeders' Cup; made little impression in Tattersalls Gold Cup on return; cheekpieces left off then, back on now. |

9st 9lb |
Cards dropped nicely in Group 2 at Newmarket (1m1f, good) in May; behind two of these rivals at the Curragh (yielding to soft) since, taking Group 1 record to 026905; however, this return to forecast faster ground is a plus. |

5th 5 (7) |
29th Jun 2024 Good 1m 2f 0y |

Runner-up at 25-1 in this race 12 months ago despite not getting a clear run at a vital stage; not beaten far in the Yorkshire Oaks or the Prix de l'Opera before unsuited by soft ground on Champions' Day; justified reprieve from retirement with Group 2 defeat of Roaring Lion at Newmarket in May; runner-up flopped at Epsom before redeeming herself at Royal Ascot. |

6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Third in the 2023 French Oaks for previous yard; placed in 1m2f Group 3 events at Newcastle (AW) and the Curragh (amid traffic issues) this term, shaping as if this step back up in trip is worth exploring; could go well. |
14/1 |

20th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y |
9st 5lb |
British raider; yard is 6-26 at this venue; won a 1m2f Listed race at Compiegne (soft) on final start in France in October 2023; beaten 11.5l on debut for this stable in the Pretty Polly (1m2f, yld-sft), her only start in 2024; shaped well when a 1.75l second in a Newcastle Group 3 on return last month; interesting, especially if the ground eases. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 6 (5) |
27th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Third in the 2023 Prix de Diane and ended her time in France with a clearcut win in 1m2f Listed race on soft that October; well-held sixth in Group 1 Pretty Polly at the Curragh (1m2f) last June on her first run for Sir Mark Prescott and not seen since; this is her AW debut; needs a market check and she's a contender judged on those best French efforts. |

Uneven form in four starts last year; put up a clear career-best when running away with a 1m1f Fairyhouse fillies' Group 3 in September; excellent run on return over C&D in Group 3 Alleged Stakes when just a neck behind White Birch; plenty to prove now after last of five behind the same talented colt in Group 2 Mooresbridge Stakes. |

Was hit and miss in four starts last year but put up a clear career-best when running away with a 1m1f Fairyhouse fillies' Group 3 last September; excellent run on return over C&D in Group 3 Alleged Stakes when just a neck behind White Birch; 3lb better off today, so a big chance. |

Twice a Listed winner, notably when beating Hey Boo over this trip at Newmarket on her final start last season; appears well held by Jancis based on a Group 2 clash at the same venue three weeks ago. |

3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 1 |

Successful twice in Listed grade, including at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) on last appearance; could go well but her overall record and ratings suggest she's unlikely to follow up in this better race. |
12/1 |

1st 2 (14) |
26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Hindered by wide trip in similar event at Pontefract when last seen; has several pieces of useful form, including good effort in Group 3 at Newmarket last October, but is 0-7 since Goodwood Listed win in May 2024. |
