Annie Fior⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: P B Beggy| T: B A Murphy| OR: 89

25/1

Winner of four of her 30 races but unplaced in Pattern company in five starts and is rated 23lb inferior to Move Swiftly at present.

Form: 165587

Red Tea³²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: D O'Brien| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 107| C

11/10

Seven-time winner including C&D handicap in May but beaten 9L into eighth behind Move Swiftly in Duchess of Cambridge so has plenty to find here.

Form: 06-4138

Chablis²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Wayne Lordan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 97

9/2

Boasts a pedigree to die for but won just once so far which was a Gowran maiden on debut. Signs of improvement of late in fairness but this looks a bridge too far although she may surprise her more fancied stablemates.

Form: 1-05443

Coral Beach^t¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 100

4/1

Belatedly got off the mark towards the back end of last year and landed a Group 3 at Leopardstown on final start of 2018. Yet to win in 2019 although highly tried; that trend continues here.

Form: 51-8847

Goddess²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 91

7/2

10L Leopardstown maiden winner last season but disappointed in three subsequent starts. Hard to believe there isn't more to come at some point from her but has plenty to find on the bare form.

Form: 916-34

Forecasts

Move Swiftly (1/1), Red Tea (11/10), Goddess (7/2), Coral Beach (4/1), Chablis (9/2), Normandel (8/1), Hand On Heart (10/1), Annie Fior (25/1)

MOVE SWIFTLY took her form to new levels at Royal Ascot latest and looks to have been found an excellent chance to follow up here even with her Group Two penalty; if she's in the same form she surely will take an awful lot of beating. It's hard to see any real dangers to her on that form but perhaps Chablis can take another step forward although Goddess does appear stable first string on jockey bookings.
