G3 – 1200m – Turf
1 |
Cry Fiction |
Came from the rear to gain a surprise victory on her debut, a fast-ground Windsor maiden. Took another step forward when second – also at long odds – in a Listed event at Newmarket. |
2 |
Dazzling Star |
Inexperienced on her debut but much sharper second time when comfortably winning a Newmarket maiden over this trip. The second horse did not enhance that form on a subsequent run. |
3 |
Elinor Dashwood |
Improved significantly from her first to her second start when a strong finish saw her beating ten rivals in a 1200m maiden at Haydock this month. |
4 |
Gladly Ever After |
Not particularly fancied according to the betting when facing more experienced rivals on her debut but, after a slow start, impressively made ground to win that Chepstow maiden decisively. |
5 |
Komat |
Won over 1000m on soft ground on her debut, and has twice performed decently in stronger company since, finishing fast into sixth of 17 in a 1200m Royal Ascot G3 last month. |
6 |
La Guarida |
An impressive 1200m maiden winner on fast ground at Goodwood but has not managed to improve on that in two starts since though a respectable fifth of 20 at Newbury last Saturday. |
7 |
Lunar Shine |
Looked to have a difficult task half-way through a 1200m Thirsk novices’ event on her debut – in June – but this expensive purchase then accelerated impressively to win easily. |
8 |
Pretty Crystal |
Has a smart pedigree and justified strong market support to win on fast ground over 1200m at Ripon on her career debut. Then ran quite a close fifth in a Royal Ascot G3. May not want slow ground. |
9 |
Sacred Angel |
Showed the benefit of her debut run when landing a ten-runner maiden over this trip at Newmarket this month. Both starts so far were on fast ground and it is likely to be much softer here. |
10 |
Soprano |
May start favourite for this. Well backed prior to making a winning debut at Newmarket, then a strong-finishing third – after briefly looking outpaced – in a Royal Ascot G3 over this trip. Finished third at Sandown just on Thursday. |
11 |
Symbology |
An expensive yearling purchase, she has plenty of speed in her pedigree and showed that when outpacing seven rivals – despite looking inexperienced – over 1200m at York this month. |
