1600m – Turf
1 |
Kitty Rose |
Beaten a head by the future G1 Irish 1000 Guineas second in G3 company last time, and clearly entitled to consideration despite her big weight. |
2 |
Everlasting |
Didn’t make the grade in the G1 Irish 1000 Guineas (11th) but has plenty of ability and back on track after last time out Listed win. |
3 |
Julica |
This French filly boasts respectable showings in G3 Prix de la Grotte (sixth) and Listed grade (fourth) but no easy task at the weights. |
4 |
Soprano |
Has a touch of class and not firing on all cylinders this season, but not discounted on handicap debut. |
5 |
Asian Daze |
The filly had busy time of it since May (three runs), but is holding her form well and she ran a smart customer close in Listed grade last time. |
6 |
Forever Blue |
Low mileage (three runs) and likely improver on the back of her Haydock reappearance win. Each way prospects. |
7 |
Hard To Resist |
Not disgraced in group company on both sides of the Channel last season. Yet to race this term but could have more to offer this season. |
8 |
Zenjabeela |
Useful sort last season (two wins) and connections are clearly prepared to forgive her poor reappearance run when last at York. |
9 |
Fair Angellica |
Equally adept on turf and the all-weather, she has done very little wrong to date (four wins from five starts) and fully entitled to take her chance here. |
10 |
Flight Of Fancy |
This classy maiden was collared close home in a decent handicap at the Curragh. The third has run well since and so not without a chance. |
11 |
Rochelle |
Has done little wrong to date and she was a fair fourth in Listed company at Longchamp last time, but others have stronger claims. |
12 |
The lightly raced filly, coming off a second at Listowel, has done little wrong. This is her stiffest test to date but there could be more to come. |
|
13 |
Gushing Gold |
Hasn’t built on last season’s promise and two unplaced efforts this term suggests that she is likely to be up against it. |
14 |
Sattwaa |
Ran well when second to a G3 winning filly in Listed grade at Dusseldorf in May, but point to prove after disappointing effort (sixth) on return trip to Germany. |
15 |
Disqualified on a technicality after finishing second at Killarney but clearly well regarded. |
|
16 |
Bellarchi |
Has been kept very busy this season (two wins from six starts), but she was well beaten (fifth) in Listed grade last time and very much an outsider. |
17 |
Indelible |
Lightly raced but improving fast judged on Lingfield and Doncaster wins. Looks to be on a competitive mark and very much a leading contender. |
18 |
Cat Ninja |
The form of her Windsor win has been well franked with the second having bolted up since at Newbury. |
19 |
Marcella |
Some encouragement to be had when second to a smart prospect at Kempton in April, but not as effective when upped to Listed and group class since. |
20 |
Arisaig |
Admirably consistent filly who have two of her three wins on the all-weather. Boasts respectable efforts on turf but more improvement is called for. |
21 |
Nocturnal |
Building nicely following successive wins at Lingfield and Wolverhampton. Not one to underestimate. |
22 |
Zaynab |
This filly is heading the right way following consecutive wins at the Curragh. Accounted for two smart customers last time and very much on an upward curve. |
23 |
My Margie |
Two all-weather wins were the prelude to fair effort in Ascot handicap, but other advance stronger claims. |
24 |
Mrs Morrell |
Heading in the right direction following easy win in a minor handicap at Yarmouth but further improvement called for. |
25 |
Viennoise |
Opened her account in good style on the all-weather at Lingfield in April, but now needs to take her game to a whole new level. |
26 |
Raknah |
The Irish visitor has already successfully tested in British waters (won a handicap at Lingfield in March) before disappointing (seventh) at Southwell. No easy task. |
27 |
Strutting |
The Wolverhampton winner hasn’t been getting home (tried over 2398m on penultimate start) over longer trips and may do better for a return to 1600m. |
28 |
D Flawless |
Lightly raced and probably has plenty of improvement in her, but she probably isn’t quite there yet judged on her third in a novice race at Goodwood. |
29 |
Battle Queen |
Some of form stands close scrutiny having finished second to a future Listed winner at Southwell. Has won since and looks well handicapped. |
30 |
Lou Lou’s Gift |
Not disgraced (third) at Kempton last time and likely to improve in time. Possible place claims. |
|
Reserves |
|
31 |
Shin Jidai |
Ran well to be second behind an in-form filly at Kempton, and she may again prove competitive off current handicap mark. |
32 |
Queen Of Atlantis |
Was in great form on the all-weather (three wins). She hasn’t proved as effective over 2000 metres on turf since but now returns to her optimum trip. |
33 |
Mercury Day |
Made a belated if successful start to the campaign in Nottingham maiden race earlier in this month, but clearly this is a big step up. |
