Won his maiden at Saratoga and running well in defeat subsequently, most recently in behind Kimari. Will need a fair chunk of improvement to land a blow here though.
Took her form to a new level when landing a Listed event at Chantilly last time out. Yard do well with both sprinters and juveniles and this filly handles quick ground well.
Improved from debut to win his next two starts at Saratoga but disappointing when favourite, upped in class at Belmont last time out; needs to leave that form behind.
Bounced back to form with an smart effort in Group 2 company and stuck to his task well when runner-up in a Dundalk Group 3 last time out. Will need to improve to have a say here.
Won a maiden at Del Mar (5f) on debut and justified favouritism when upped to 1m at that venue in Listed company next time; disappointed when odds on here last time and would need to improve for the drop back in trip here.
Listed winner at York but finished a long way behind Dream Shot when only beating one home at Doncaster last time. Needs to improve for the fitting of first-time blinkers.
Three wins from four starts and only defeat was a narrow loss in a Royal Ascot Group 2. Well on top at the line when beating Chimney Rock last time out and she's clearly progressive.
Narrowly got the better of Dream Shot in a Dundalk Group 3 last time out; may not get an uncontested lead here though and this is clearly tougher.
Unbeaten in two starts and impressive when landing a Grade 3 at Belmont last time out (Another Miracle fifth). Drop back in trip should be no issue and he rates as a fascinating contender here.
Got the better of Dream Shot in a Doncaster Group 2 (his third Group 2 success) last time out when dropped back in trip. A threat to all on fast ground at this trip.
Hasn't won since a Dundalk success in maiden company on debut. Best effort yet when fourth in a strong French Group 1 last time and shouldn't be far away if he can build on that run.
Unbeaten filly in three starts, beating Cambria by a head at Kentucky last time out. Drop in trip shouldn't be an issue but has a bit to find on that sort of form.

Wesley Ward has a typically strong hand in this even and it's KIMARI who makes most appeal. She looks a shade unlucky not to be arriving with an unbeaten record having only been narrowly denied at Royal Ascot earlier in the year and she was well on top when beating some of these last time out. Stablemate Four Wheel Drive is an obvious threat while A'ali is clearly a talented sprinter going places, he could be the best of the foreign challenge.
