Form & Verdict
Blue Point filly who cost 400,000euros as a yearling; disappointed favourite backers on AW debut (7f) but left that form trailing when making all for a clearcut success at Windsor (1m, good to firm; 100-30); the runner-up, a stablemate of Dreamasar, had won the time before; the same connections won this last year with Clove Hitch.

Lightly raced and progressive filly who completed a hat-trick in a Listed race at Sandown (1m, good to firm) last July; held in second in her final two runs last season but the first was a Group 3 and latest was in the Group 1 Sun Chariot Stakes at Newmarket; sets the standard on this big drop back in class and she's a strong contender on her return.

Lightly raced and progressive filly who took the promotion to Listed level in her stride at Sandown (1m, good to firm) and again on her debut in a Group 3 when narrowly denied by Lady Of Spain on soft ground back there a month ago; however, she's 3lb worse off with her conqueror here so needs her best yet by some margin.

Only fourth at Newcastle (7f AW) late last year in what's turned out to be a decidedly ordinary novice; on the plus side, this 450,000gns daughter of Dubawi should at least be capable of better; would need to see some confidence behind her.

Runner-up in all five runs this year, at odds of 2-9, 11-10, 10-11 and 5-4 last four occasions; that's from just six races in total and she went down by just a neck over 1m2f on last two outings (on good to soft latest, unraced on worse) but she needs to find a bit extra on this handicap debut.

Masar filly who is a half-sister to several winners, notably the high-class 7f-1m1f performer Dreamloper; dam 1m2f-1m4f winner who was Listed level; the only runner who lacks experience but there's lots to like on paper; market instructive.

Half-sister to five winners; took a walk in the market ahead of her Newmarket debut in April (7f, good) but came from further back than the two who narrowly beat her (winner well backed and still unexposed) and that was a promising start; however, looks the stable second string here on jockey bookings.
