G1 – 1984m – Turf

1 Running Lion Won at Royal Ascot in 2024 and came close to a surprise G1 ParisLongchamp victory over 2000m on slow ground later last year. Hasn’t matched that level in 2025 so far.
2 See The Fire Almost reeled in Opera Singer to land a surprise victory in this last year so clearly happy with this unusual track, and distance. Her last two runs suggest she’s at the top of her game with this her prime target. Fast ground ideal.
3 Bedtime Story Won her first four starts and proved herself over this trip on her latest start when a strong finishing second in Chantilly’s G1 Prix de Diane in June. She looked like a G1 winner waiting to happen then.
4 Cercene Improved on some already improved performances when surprising better fancied rivals with a G1 success at Royal Ascot, rallying courageously to beat a high-profile French-trained filly. This rise in distance is a worry, according to her pedigree.
5 Whirl Having only narrowly failed in the Epsom Oaks, she made her G1 breakthrough with a terrific victory over 2000m at the Curragh in June, toughing it out to beat a G1 winning filly. Likely to exploit her stamina by pushing forward early.
