8st 13lb |
Short-headed in the Group 2 Sandy Lane at Haydock (6f, good) in May and creditable fourth in the Group 3 Summer Stakes at York (6f, good) last time; didn't convince with her stamina in the Nell Gwyn in April on her sole crack at 7f but that was her reappearance and the lack of a recent run may have told late on; can be thereabouts if seeing out the trip. |

Group 2 win as a 2yo and also third in the Group 1 Cheveley Park; better than ever when second in a Haydock Group 2 in May but she failed to back it up in the Commonwealth Cup; each-way shout. |

Sole win (from eight starts) came in the Group 2 Duchess Of Cambridge Stakes at Newmarket (6f, good) last July; better than ever when short-headed in the Group 2 Sandy Lane Stakes at Haydock (6f, good) last month and has an each-way chance if backing up that performance. |

12th Apr 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |

Useful filly whose solid record on British soil features three good efforts at Group level; has readily justified favouritism in two races at Meydan (7f/1m) this year; major contender in hat-trick attempt. |

The most experienced in the line-up and the pick on form; won twice on the Rowley course here in the spring and she found only one too good in the Group 2 Duchess Of Cambridge here (6f, good) four weeks ago, keeping on well in a manner that suggests this longer trip will suit; the one to beat. |

3-8 at two; won valuable Ballyhane Stakes at Naas and the 7f Group 3 Weld Park Stakes; met trouble in Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies' won by stablemate Lake Victoria; flopped in the Dubai Duty Free Stakes on return; out of her depth in the Pouliches; big drop in class now; up in trip, leading chance if she stays; positives in the pedigree. |

Ballydoyle filly whose largely consistent 2yo campaign featured several pieces of Group form, notably Curragh success in sole 7f attempt; best to forgive her Breeders' Cup effort; holds solid claims. |

1m looks worth revisiting; didn't get the rub of the green over 7f last time but bouncing back from the widest stall won't be easy. |

5f/6f wins at two and was close up in a Group 2; hasn't looked well handicapped this season and seems to be treading water; the cheekpieces tried last time are left off. |

Mid-division in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot on sole crack at 1m (good to firm) and fair fourth at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) since; however, improvement is necessary today in first-time cheekpieces. |

Smart as 2yo but she hasn't quite hit those heights in 2025, albeit facing some tough assignments; dropping down the weights and now tried in cheekpieces but others look safer. |

12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Went close in Group 3 Firth Of Clyde Stakes at Ayr (6f, good to firm) last September; reappeared with fair fifth of 15 in the Group 3 Fred Darling at Newbury (7f, good) in April but has failed to build on that and she needs to raise her game now back up in trip. |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
In the same ownership as Miss Lamai and finished just in front of that rival when third of 24 in last season's Queen Mary; unplaced in three starts this year but looks to retain all her ability, faring better than the result when sixth in a strong Listed race at Cork (5.5f, good) last month; a big run at rewarding odds can't be ruled out in this her first handicap. |

22nd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
All runs at 6f; debut winner on the AW; has finished behind some of today's opposition in all her subsequent runs and gave the impression last time at Ascot that a longer trip might now be needed; this fast 6f could find her out. |

3rd 9 (7) |
27th Jul 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
All runs at 6f; debut winner on the AW; ridden positively when second in a Newmarket Listed race and perhaps not seen to best effect under more patient tactics in a Group 2 there at the July festival, won by a filly who was behind her the time before; a repeat of that penultimate run would see her right in the mix. |

Probably beaten by a smart colt from Ballydoyle at the Curragh (6f, good) and she looked a threat before flattening out late on; looks to have the raw speed for 5f and she's since been snapped up by high-profile owners; could be a lively one for a yard that won this in 2021. |

Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf fourth last year; has not matched that form this term but run well in defeat, notably Killarney Listed second (soft); not at that level in similar contest on latest however and bit to prove now but major claims if back to her best. |

Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf fourth last year; has not matched that form this term but has continued to run well in defeat, including second C&D fillies Listed last month on soft; may not have handled the track at Galway last time but entitled to be in the mix on overall form. |

Juvenile career ended on a high when fourth in Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf at Del Mar (1m, firm); has not matched that form but has continued to run well in defeat; a four-time runner-up (three Group 3s and a Listed); high draw is a concern, but otherwise has plenty going for her. |

Dominic Ffrench Davis' former assistant takes over from him as her trainer; she brings an unblemished record and has track form, having won here (good to soft) before beating the runner-up again in a Listed race at Sandown (soft); that latest effort can be upgraded as she was on the back foot after missing the break and did well to win at all; respected. |
