4/1
Placed on her last three starts including in stronger company at York in what was a career best. Both wins came with cut including over the C&D but seems equally effective on quick and should go well.

9/2
Former Irish performer who took a significant step forward on British and stable debut on the AW. However was on the pace in a slowly run race and untested on ground this quick.

6/4
Lightly raced and has improved with every run. Her latest Ascot close second is very strong form with the winner subsequently runner-up in the Group 2 Lillie Langtry. She was also unsuited by a modest tempo. Leading contender.

8/1
Winner of two of her last three when allowed an easy lead each start. Unlikely to be allowed the same rope again but has managed to pick another small field and is progressive.

12/1
Interesting on handicap debut following an improved second in novice company. Switch to front running tactics seemed to help and has plenty of stamina in pedigree for this step up in trip.

Hyanna16
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-6| J: Edward Greatrex| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR:  77| D
5/1
Has continued to progress since leaving Tim Easterby and won in good style last time. May appreciate a stiffer test in time and is up 5lb in a tougher race, however the way she is going should be in the mix.

Forecasts

Phantasmic (6/4), Mistress Quickly (4/1), Dawn Choir (9/2), Hyanna (5/1), Morning Beauty (8/1), Reassurance (12/1)

Verdict

A small field but an open and competitive fillies with all six runners very much on the up. A lot will depend on the tempo and Morning Beauty may be vulnerable as she is unlikely to get an easy lead again. Reassurance is unlikely to allow that and it's not in the interest of her or Hyanna in this turning into anything other than a true test of stamina. Mistress Quickly was second in a good race last start and a repeat will see her involved while the Ascot form of PHANTASMIC couldn't have worked out much better and she could quickly turn up to be superior than this level.
  1. Phantasmic
  2. Reassurance
  3. Mistress Quickly
