Form & Verdict
Made a promising start when a close second at Beverley and she built on that with a front-running win at Pontefract (5f, good) 19 days ago; this is tougher under a penalty but she showed a good attitude last time and this well-bred filly is open to more progress.

Listed win as a 2yo and she was successful in this grade at Ayr (5f, soft) in June too; no impact in a Goodwood Group 2 last time and vulnerable under her penalty, for all she's well drawn and will handle conditions.

Runner-up in the Group 3 Molecomb (5f, good) over C&D 12 months ago and returned to form with Listed win at Ayr (5f, soft) last month; however, it's likely she'll come up short now back up in grade.

OR:

Form & Verdict
Justified support in good style on her Southwell debut (AW) last month but she weakened into sixth of eight in the Lily Agnes at Chester (good) a week later; bit to prove after that but she was drawn out wide and it wouldn't be a surprise if she bounced back with a big run.

Blue Point filly who cost £40,000 as a yearling; thrown in at the deep end when last of six in a Listed race at the Curragh (good; 100-1) two weeks ago but she wasn't beaten far and should improve for that experience; not ruled out.

Sole win from 11 starts came on the AW at Southwell in April, but she was unlucky not to press the progressive Naana's Shadow even closer in the 3yo dash at Epsom (5f, good); hasn't matched that level in three starts since but drops in grade and a strong pace would suit this headstrong filly.

Capable of much better than she showed on good to soft ground at Hamilton six weeks ago, such as when dashing home, after finally getting a clear run, to divide Naana's Shadow and Shes Got A Brother in the 3yo Dash at Epsom (good); no surprise to see her revive back on more suitable ground.

Made a successful handicap debut at Hamilton (6f, good) last July off a 6lb lower mark and that form worked out nicely; ran in sales races on her final two starts in 2025, eighth of 21 at Naas and seventh of 14 at Goodwood (7f, good to soft); was challenging 1f out in the latter event before her stamina gave way; untried on AW and absent for 219 days but there could be more to come this year.

3yo filly who is unbeaten (6-6) over sprint trips, mostly in Group races, including two at the top level; only narrowly justified favouritism in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot (good to firm) most recently but it's hard to knock her record and there may yet be further advancement in terms of her rating; sire won the July Cup; receives all the allowances and duly warrants respect.

Top 6f 2yo, completing a notable hat-trick with wins in Group 3 at Royal Ascot, Group 2 at Newmarket (July) and Group 1 at Deauville (all good/good to firm); seemed fine at 7f (ran on after meeting trouble) when third in the Moyglare at the Curragh (yielding) on her final start but shaped like a non-stayer when stepped up to 1m for 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket on reappearance; remains open to progress back at 6f; leading claims.
