Danielle

Just two 2025 starts but has looked an improved filly. Came close to winning a 2800m Goodwood G2 in August. This shorter trip probably a plus. Slow ground wanted.

2

Estrange

A minor setback saw her miss the Arc but should be bang on for this and has terrific form over this trip, including a G1 second to brilliant Minnie Hauk. Good chance. Soft ground a bonus.

3

Kalpana

Quickened away from her rivals to win this last year. Some excellent efforts this year without winning and her seventh in the Arc needs upgrading after a wide trip. Chance.

4

Latakia

Hasn’t stood a lot of racing but was progressive, climaxed with an easy G2 win over a bit further than this at Deauville. May have found the ground too slow at ParisLongchamp.

5

One Look

Launched a powerful challenge in the ParisLongchamp straight that came close to succeeding in a 2000m G1 this month. Hopes if recovered from that and can thrive at this longer trip.

6

Quisisana

Smart acceleration won her four consecutive French races – including a Deauville G1. Raced too keenly on unsuitably slow ground in the Arc. Could easily bounce back on a quicker surface.

7

Ballet Slippers

Only one start in 2025 and that was a modest show in a Curragh G2. Though likely to be sharper this time, has so far has not lived up to her fabulous pedigree.

8

Bedtime Story

One stiff task after another for her, competing in G1s on her last eight starts. Some of those efforts would give her a small chance and this drop back in trip looks helpful.

9

Waardah

An exciting filly who didn’t resent a major trip rise when surging past rivals to win a 2800m G2 at Goodwood in August. Will handle this shorter journey well. Slow ground preferred.

10

Wemightakedlongway

Yet another compelling performance in a G1 with a close fourth in a 2000m ParisLongchamp G1 this month, just lacking a finish kick on the very slow ground. Chances.
