Progressive last season; two wins from five starts including a Listed contest at Leopardstown (1m6f, good) by 4.25l; signed off with a very respectable 3.75l fifth in the Group 2 Park Hill at Doncaster (14.5f, gd-sft); carries a penalty but big chance if ready after 236 days off.

Five races, improving every time; unraced on softer than good to yielding; won maiden at Limerick (11.3f) in July and Listed race at Leopardstown (upped to 1m6f) three weeks ago; in the latter she was ridden patiently (leader went too fast) and swooped to challenge 2f out, finishing well on top; this is a stiffer task but it's hard to say just how good she might become.

J: Colin Keane

T: Joseph Patrick O’Brien

Unraced on firmer than good; second at Navan (1m6f, heavy) in March on Flat handicap debut; backed that up with her excellent, close fourth of 15 when third favourite for the Chester Cup (2m2f, good; 1lb higher today) in May, coming from towards rear after a slow start; has to be considered but such a wide draw may mean she again has to come from well back.

J: Ryan Moore

T: Joseph Patrick O’Brien

Yard runs three; well beaten in Listed races last autumn but, fit from hurdling, made a good Flat return when second at Navan (1m6f, heavy) at the end of March; that was both her Flat handicap debut and the furthest she's been in this sphere, which opens up possibilities for her as a Flat stayer.

J: Declan McDonogh

T: Joseph Patrick O’Brien

Third runner for yard; dual-purpose performer, 6-12 on Flat, 1-7 over jumps; highly progressive last year, winning 1m6f and 2m Listed at the Curragh and Down Royal before Group 3 victory at Fairyhouse and third in the Group 2 Lillie Langtry at Goodwood in August; rounded off the year with an excellent runner-up in the Melbourne Cup; fitness has to be taken on trust but big player if she's ready.

Better than ever since sent back to the Flat after three runs over fences during the winter; justified favouritism in a 1m6f Listed race at Gowran Park, 2m Listed event at Down Royal and 1m6f Group 3 at Fairyhouse on last three outings, all on good ground; more to prove on soft (despite winning a maiden hurdle) but she needs major respect.

Maiden has been highly tried at times to no avail but did pick up some black type when a 5.25l third behind Floresta in a Listed heat at Leopardstown (1m6f, good) last season; beaten in a Dundalk maiden when last seen in December; ground a concern on return; tongue tie goes on.

Winner of three of her six races for Ralph Beckett; purchased for 300,000gns and posted a cracking effort on seasonal return/stable debut when keeping on well over 1m2f in a big-field premier handicap at the Curragh, denied by a nose; enters Group 3 company for the first time but worthy of consideration with improvement; cheekpieces go on.

Won her maiden at the second attempt over 1m here in September (yielding); good front-running third of seven in a Navan Group 3 on seasonal return (1m2f, good to yielding); didn't build on that when 7.5l behind stablemate Cameo in Lingfield Listed company last month (11.5f, good to firm); no surprise to see her do better with blinkers now applied.

By Wootton Bassett out of a 9.5f Listed winner who's sister to Irish Guineas winner Roderic O'Connor; won a maiden at Cork (1m, yielding) last September and probably improved again when front-running third of seven in Group 3 at Navan (1m2f, good to yielding) two weeks ago; top trainer so often gets these 3yo middle-distance fillies to improve.

Maiden winner here and Group 3-placed over 1m on heavy in the autumn; reportedly showed signs of coming into season when 26l behind on Group 3 seasonal return at Navan (1m2f, good to yielding); few apparent excuses when 18.5l behind in a Naas Listed contest last time (10.5f, good); holds an Irish Oaks entry, but Bloom is more appealing of trainer's two; blinkers on.

Winner and Group 3-placed over 1m on heavy in the autumn; forget about her run at Navan a fortnight ago (found to be showing signs of coming into season), but what was significant was that Moore picked her over 10lb higher-rated stablemate (who, admittedly, also ran poorly); pedigree implies she can improve at this trip and entered in both Oaks.
