600,000euros yearling by Night Of Thunder; 11-8 favourite for six-runner novice at Haydock (7f, good) five weeks ago, coming only fourth but very green and showing strong signs she was getting the hang of things late on; holds entries in an Irish Group 2 this month and in the Group 1 Moyglare in September; could be a big improver.

C&D maiden winner last August who was third to Precise in the Group 1 Fillies' Mile in October; returned with Group 3 win at Longchamp (1m, good) in April and runner-up in the 1,000 Guineas (1m, good to firm) next time, faring best of those who raced on the far side (led that group); failed to settle and weakened when soundly beaten in the Prix de Diane (10.5f, good to firm) last time; drops back in trip but improvement is needed to win this.

Newmarket form comprises a maiden win on the July course and third-place finish, just over 4l behind Precise, in the Group 1 Fillies' Mile; bagged Group 3 honours at Longchamp (1m, good) on reappearance, collaring a sitting duck (clear leader who tired) and strong at the finish; has evidently trained on well and her RPRs continue on an upward trajectory.

Threatened on occasions as a 2yo and also excelled herself when a close fifth in a Group 3 in France (1m, very soft) last October; began her 3yo campaign with two solid efforts but she was well beaten at Royal Ascot four weeks ago; hood now tried and a tongue tie returns; won't find a better chance to break her duck.

Not your typical six-race maiden as she had notable form last season, including a second behind Oaks runner-up Legacy Link and a close fifth in a Group 3; this season's defeats have come in races won by Gosden filly So Regal who is going places; proven on fast ground and no forlorn hope.

Quality 2yo form on all sorts of ground, as her seconds where behind smart horses and she wasn't beaten too far in a French Group 3; she did have the run of things up front on her Newmarket return (1m maiden, good) but was still unable to contain the less exposed So Regal; a 6lb pull with the winner could make it interesting.

Built upon her abundant 2yo promise to win the Group 3 Musidora Stakes at York (10.2f, good) last month and she was a clear second in the Oaks at Epsom (1m4f, good to soft) 13 days ago, albeit no match for the winner; she had a hard race last time and there is a worry that this assignment may come too soon, but she sets a strong form standard for the rest to aim at.

All four starts on good to firm/good ground; rallied for fourth in a hot running of the Group 1 Fillies' Mile at Newmarket last October on her final 2yo run, and she reappeared with a hard-fought win in the Group 3 Musidora at York (10.2f), asserting close home; there is every chance that she will stay 1m4f and her pedigree provides optimism that she will be effective on slow ground; dam is a sister to Frankel; firmly in calculations.

Easy win at Haydock (1m, good) last September on her second start and rallied for fourth of ten in the Group 1 Fillies' Mile at Newmarket (good) in October, the form of which has worked out very well; her dam (a sister to Frankel) was a 1m4f winner and this step up in trip should be right up her street; leading claims for top yard that has won this seven times since 2011.

Fair form on all three starts, best form on soft ground on second occasion; latest was her closest finish, though, when making most in a 1m3f maiden at Kempton (AW) and that performance suggests she will stay 1m4f; needs to find extra to get off the mark on this handicap debut.
