Listed – 2200m – Turf

1

Crystal Estrella

Trained by Sir Michael Stoute in UK who is yet to win for Andreas Wöhler. This lower level and significant drop in trip might do the trick now.

2

Veil Of Shadows

Represents the Godolphin Stables, formerly with Charlie Appleby, now trained in France. Confidence booster on small French track latest, respected.

3

Atlantica

Winner of a maiden as a 2yo and has been campaigned in Stakes class since. Latest 3rd behind an improver gives her a shout here.

4

Extrabunt

Form ties in with Atlantica whom she meets on slightly better terms. No forlorn hope.

5

Global Queen

Generally finds life a bit tough in this class and no more than a lively outsider.

6

Kammuri Diamond

One win in 10 starts and another one who mainly struggles in this company. Pedigree is a mix of speed and stamina and hard to predict when her day may come.

7

Marmara Star

Handicapper with the lowest rating of the whole field. Impossible to fancy.

8

Narmada

Some smart form earlier in life, and confidence booster in modest race latest. Ground likely to suit, and could land a surprise.

9

Spirit Of Dreams

Wasn’t beaten all that far when 6th in German Oaks in 2023, on bottomless ground. Pick of the stable jockey, but still will be an outsider.

10

Taiora

Another runner for Andreas Wöhler, one win in 10 starts. Like many in this race is capable of a place if everything falls right.

11

Thunder Sea

Norwegian runner who won five races in her native country, including the Norwegian 1000 Guineas and Oaks. Proven over all sorts of trips but hard to predict how she will handle this company.

12

Wedding In May

One win and a campaign based around getting ‘Black Type’. Found life tough in Listed company over various trips and it would be a mild shock if she were to win this.
