J: Colin Keane

T: Andrew Balding

Seven-time winner has shown improved form this year to win all four starts; began with a Goodwood Listed race before taking the Group 2 Duke of Cambridge Stakes, then claiming the Falmouth Stakes and Prix Rothschild; has beaten Precise in both those Group 1s, but only narrowly last time; has to remain at her best to do so again, but is still the one to beat.

Blue Bolt

J: Colin Keane

T: Andrew Balding

Runner-up in the Group 1 Sun Chariot on the other Newmarket course last October (1m, good) and this lightly raced 4yo made it two from two for this year when winning the Group 2 Duke Of Cambridge at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month, travelling well to beat Jancis by just under 2l; that latest performance suggests she's capable of landing a Group 1 prize; key player.

Has won four of her five starts; won a 6f Cork maiden on debut last year before running a cracker in the Irish 1,000 Guineas; went missing after that but has gone unbeaten in three runs this year including a Group 3 over 7f here and Group 2 Lanwades Stud Stakes over 1m at the Curragh in May; absent since but goes well fresh; however, she has a bit to find with the best of these.

Bolted up in a Cork maiden last May; thrown straight into Group 1 company in the Irish 1,000 Guineas and coped admirably, beaten 4 1/2l in fifth behind Lake Victoria, despite racing keenly; won over 7f at Gowran last month after a lengthy absence; backed that up with an emphatic Group 3 win at Leopardstown; can continue on the upgrade.

J: Oisin Murphy

T: Jane Chapple-Hyam

Good efforts behind the top-class Blue Bolt on first two starts this season and posted a personal best when winning Group 3 at Ascot (1m, good to firm; unraced on softer) five weeks ago; reliable and tactically versatile; should go well again despite a 3lb penalty.

Missed the rest of the season after finishing seventh in the Coronation over C&D at 2025 Royal Ascot but has returned with two fine runs behind Blue Bolt, latterly when fourth of 15 in the Duke Of Cambridge over C&D (good to firm); the one likely to give Touleen most to do.

Beaten only once in five outings; crowned her 2yo campaign with a gutsy success in Group 3 at Newmarket (7f, good) and got this year off to the best possible start with a clearcut win in Listed race at Haydock (1m, good); handled good to soft ground well when winning valuable sales race at Doncaster last autumn; upwardly mobile filly with a big chance.

Beaten only once in four outings as a 2yo, crowning the campaign with a gutsy success in Group 3 at Newmarket (7f, good); should have no problem getting 1m; still has untapped potential and she's an interesting candidate if ready to roll after ten months off.

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.

Smart 3yo who has run well behind top-class rivals in 1m Group 1 events this year, fourth to Precise in the Coronation Stakes and third to Blue Bolt in the Prix Rothschild; convincing winner on good to soft ground on debut last summer; now down in grade, she's the pick on form and the one to beat.

Runner-up to Precise in the Group 3 Prestige Stakes at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) last August and third in the Group 2 Rockfel at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) in September; she's better than she showed in the Group 1 Fillies' Mile at Newmarket (1m, good) last October, when well beaten behind Precise, but this is her first run since and she looks up against it.

T: Ralph Beckett

Has not looked like being beaten in any of her races so far, and she made it 3-3 in Listed event over C&D (made all) in July; that was on good to firm ground and she bolted up on soft the time before; still could be anything and she's well worth her place in her first Group 3.

Unbeaten in two starts, both over 7f (likely to be as effective at 1m); comfortably defied a penalty in Haydock novice event (soft) on seasonal debut; out of a Listed/Group 3 winner for her owner-breeder and brings potential to this rise in grade; adds interest.
