6/1 9/1 6/1

One of three for top yard; promise when a 2.5l fourth on debut at Dundalk (7f) last October; off the mark on seasonal return in a 7f maiden here on soft in March and earned an official rating of 97; deserted by Moore upped in trip but rider's 5lb claim useful off top weight; can't discount.

4/1 FCST 7/2

Promising debut at the Curragh (1m2f, sft-hvy) in March when chasing home the 102 rated Shaihann; went one place better at Navan (1m2f, gd-yld) in April, winning a median auction maiden by 2.25l; the drop back to 1m is a query but there's plenty of speed on the dam side of his pedigree; in the mix.

Decent effort when an 8.25l third of 12 on debut at Dundalk (1m) in February; got up late on soft ground at Bellewstown (1m) last month and the fourth from that race (beaten 13.5l) has won a maiden since; needs to improve again but that's not impossible; cheekpieces on.

Both runs over 1m on heavy ground; 5l third of 23 on debut at the Curragh behind Victory Tip; got his head in front next time at Navan in first-time cheekpieces (retained) and runner up has won since; pedigree suggests there could be lots more to come on quicker ground and he's the choice of Ryan Moore; big player.

Justified 4-7 favouritism at Dundalk on debut in April, when 1.25l in front despite showing signs of greenness over 5f; disappointed when sent off the same odds in a Curragh Listed contest last time (5f, good), running keenly and jinking right late on to fade into third (6l behind What A Girl Wants); something to prove now but likely has more to give.

12/1 15/2 11/1

British raider; Sioux Nation filly displayed plenty of speed and ran on strongly in the final furlong to win a Redcar novice by 2.5l on debut (5f, gd-fm); the manner of that win and her pedigree suggests that 6f should pose no problems; looks well worth a go at this level and is no forlorn hope.

Beaten on debut at Cork before going the rest of the season unbeaten; landed a Navan maiden (6f, soft), a four-runner conditions event here (5f, good) and ultimately the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm); workmanlike when justifying short odds at Navan on seasonal return (6f, good to yielding) and there is likely improvement to come; holds Group 1 entries for Ascot.

AI verdict

Favourable weight of 9-8 gives a real edge in this handicap.

Won a 6f Fairyhouse maiden over this trip last July (good); best form when just denied in a Listed event at the same track in September (6f, yielding); improved over moderate seasonal return at Cork when a 3l sixth at Navan last time (6f, good to yielding); others preferred.

Maiden and Listed winner over 5f; beaten only a nose in a Group 3 over the minimum trip at Longchamp, though produced her best effort when chasing home True Love in the 6f Group 1 Cheveley Park; failed to cope with the challenge of the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint; appealing given her top-rating and she's unpenalised but lacks a run.

Winner of her sole start last year at Navan (6f, yielding); disputing second in a Navan Listed contest before fading late into fourth (6f, good to yielding); plausible improvement to come from that first run back and was just 1.75l behind the winner Charles Darwin, although worse off at the weights now.

Dual 6f French winner at two; good efforts in a pair of Group 3s before signing off her French career with an underwhelming Group 2 start; mightily impressive Irish/stable debut at Cork (5.5f, soft) when pulverising seven rivals by 9l; big chance if building on that on this better ground.

Former Flying Five winner reached a peak rating of 114 before losing his form in the latter half of 2024; missed all of last season; return in a C&D Listed contest last time was not totally devoid of promise when 4.75l behind Mission Central; may build on that.
