10th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Listed winner at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) in April; some respectable efforts since but 33-1 in 1m4f Group 3 here two weeks ago and finished last of 11; this also looks tough. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Listed winner at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) in April and respectable efforts in defeat in the same grade at York and Salisbury on her last two runs; however, needs something extra now back into a Group race. |

13th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 201y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Listed winner at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) in April who was back near that form when sixth of 12 at York (1m2f, good) last month in another Listed event; travelled better than Revoir in the latter race but that rival saw it out more strongly to finish fifth; giving weight all round, she may again come up a bit short. |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Won this last year prior to finishing placed in two North American Grade 1s; not at her best when third of fourth in Group 2 at York on last month's reappearance but it wasn't a bad run and she may well have needed it; very much the one to beat if reproducing anything close to her peak form. |

3rd 2 (1) |
14th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
An improved performer last year, winning a good-ground Listed race at Haydock (reappearance) and AW Group 3 at Newcastle around 1m2f before progressing again to place in Grade 1s on firm at Woodbine (1m2f) and Del Mar (1m3f; Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf); bang there on form but the fact her top stable has gone nearly three weeks without a winner has to be a slight concern. |

1st 2 (3) |
27th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Won her first two starts last May, latterly a 1m2f Newbury Listed race; has had an interrupted career since but resumed improvement when gradually working her way to a clearcut win in Listed race at Haydock (1m2f, good) five weeks ago; hard to beat if that form is transferred on AW debut. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y |
9st 5lb |
British raider is talented on her day; two-time winner at Listed level, but has come up well short in a trio of Group 2s this season, most recently when beaten 12.5l in the Duke Of Cambridge at Royal Ascot (1m, gd-fm); needs a revival stepped back up in trip. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Dual Listed winner, including over 1m at Newmarket (good to firm; Arisaig third) in September; finished 10l adrift of Jancis on return in May but latest tenth of 12 in Curragh Group 2 (1m, good) is better than it reads, having been tapped for toe then getting no room when launching a rally; still likely to find a few too good. |
50/1 |

24th May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
9st 2lb |
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. |

Placed at Listed/Group 3 level last year; disappointed in Newmarket Group 3 on final outing but has had only five starts and could resume her progress for her top stable in 2025. |

11th Oct 2024 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Has had only four races; won novice at Kempton (1m3f, AW) in July; much better form when second to Divina Grace in Listed race on the July course here (1m4f, good to firm; travelled best) and third of five in Group 3 here (1m4f, soft; made most) two weeks ago, both in a style which makes 1m2f look an attractive option; improvement is needed but possible. |

17th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Mercurial mare who is smart on her day; won 1m Group 2 at Royal Ascot and finished a close second in the Group 1 Opera at Longchamp (1m2f, very soft) last year; the effect of the cheekpieces that prompted an improved fourth when bidding to retain her Ascot crown has worn off the last twice, though, including when a surprise market mover but beaten 24l in the Group 1 Nassau (1m2f, heavy) last time; wins nothing on that form, and the widest stall is not helpful, but she'd be a big threat if first-time blinkers fire her up. |
11/4 |

5th 1 (1) |
31st Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Won the Group 2 Duke of Cambridge at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last June and went close in the Group 1 Prix de l'Opera at Longchamp (1m2f, very soft); respectable fourth back at Royal Ascot last month but she hasn't been at her very best this season and looks vulnerable today; can lead. |

11th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Ran creditably in first-time cheekpieces (retained today) when bidding for a second win in the Duke of Cambridge Stakes but finished behind two of today's rivals and there seems no obvious reason why she should reverse the placings; ran as if something was amiss in this contest last year. |

17th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Beat one home in this race last year for different connections and has struggled for her new yard this term, latterly when sixth of eight in the Listed Upavon at Salisbury (1m2f, good to firm) five weeks ago; first-time hood worn there is retained; work to do. |

13th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 201y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
2-4 for William Haggas, all last year, but ended on a low note for him and uncompetitive for new connections this season; while latest run was one of her better efforts in form terms, she was still beaten 12l in that 1m4f Listed race and needs a big career best to win this; hood goes on. |

24th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 100y Class 1 |

Headstrong sort but success in the 2024 Musidora at York shows she's very useful; led until around 1f out when fourth in 1m1f Newmarket Group 2 on reappearance, with the reopposing Running Lion in fifth; likely to be in the shake-up. |
