Identical RPRs (75) when fourth on debut at Galway (9.5f, sft-hvy) last October and when a 1.5l second of 7 on seasonal return at Gowran (9.5f, soft); place claims if acting on this sounder surface.

Form & Verdict
Sea The Stars filly a 460,000euros yearling, is sister to winners Kildare Legend (1m3f) and Golden Horse (1m), half-sister to French 6.5f AW winner My Runner; dam half-sister to 1m1f Group 1 winner Mekhtaal; plenty green on debut at Thurles in October but shaped with nice bit of promise when staying-on third (1.25l off runner-up Cape Primrose) over 1m; should relish this longer trip and could get a lot closer to Cape Primrose now.

Third in a soft-ground maiden on reappearance; huge advances in her three starts since, notably when pipped by Earth Shot at Royal Ascot and 4l winner of Irish Oaks at the Curragh (both 1m4f on good to firm); the latter was in smooth style, as she skipped clear over 1f out before Inis Mor ran on into second, while Earth Shot disappointed in sixth; any further improvement would make her a serious rival for the older stars in this race.

Won at the third attempt, making all in a maiden at Leopardstown (1m2f, good) in May; took the sharp rise in class in her stride when going very close against Earth Shot in the Ribblesdale; further improvement on the cards; helps to give Joseph O'Brien a strong hand.

Off the mark at the third attempt when readily making all in a maiden at Leopardstown (1m2f, good) last month; others have achieved considerably more but she's on the up and her trainer is also responsible for impressive Oaks winner Thundering On; there can be optimism that this Sea The Stars filly will be suited by the step up in trip and she's well worth a second look.

Well-bred filly is rated 76 after four starts; went close at Thurles on her second and final start last term (1m, good to yielding); hasn't really progressed in two runs this year, the latest in cheekpieces at Naas (10.5f, good); Moore rides White Sand Beach.

Well-bred filly is rated 79 after three starts; just under 6l ahead of Arrietty when runner-up at Thurles on second start last year; soft ground may not have suited when disappointing on return at Gowran; should go well in first-time cheekpieces.
