Group 2 winner at York in August but only fifth in a tougher race at Newmarket last time out. May do better over this longer trip and not one to rule out.

Maiden winner in Ireland but only runner-up in a pair of recent Listed races and she must improve to have a say here.

Group 2 winner at Maisons' Laffitte last time, adding to a Listed success earlier in the season. Best form has come on softer ground.

20/1
Two wins from three starts and narrowly stayed on well enough to win a Grade 1 at Woodbine last time out. Returns to quicker ground but less exposed than most and may yet have more to give.

Three wins from five starts and only narrowly denied in her previous Group 1 attempt at the Curragh. Got back on track with a game Group 2 success at Newmarket last time and can go well again.

Just a maiden win at Fairyhouse to her name and while placed in a Group 3 next time out, she's not improved on that in two subsequent efforts.

Improved from debut to win a Listed race at Saratoga and only narrowly denied in a Grade 2 at Belmont last time out; likely still on the up and can go well again.

Got her head back in front in heavy ground at Listed level last time but yet to show her best form on a quicker surface; others make more appeal.

4/1
Recovered from a blip at the Curragh to win a French Group 1 in fine style on Arc day. Could be ahead of these judged on that form and she's the one to beat if she handles the quick ground.

14/1
Promising effort on debut prior to winning her next two starts including a Listed success at Woodbine. Ran with credit in Grade 1 company back at that venue last time when beaten just a neck; can go well again in first-time blinkers.

Arrives with just a maiden win to her name and she did that in impressive fashion. Step up in trip could suit (stamina on dam's side) but wide draw isn't ideal.

Made it two wins from five starts in a Grade 2 at Keeneland last time out. won with plenty in hand that day and quite possible there's more to come.

Selflessly33
Age: 2|  Weight: 8-10| J: Javier Castellano| T: Chad Brown| OR:  90| D
8/1
Improved from debut to win a Grade 2 at Belmont last time out when getting the better of Crystalle. More needed here, particularly from this wide draw but entirely unexposed.

Etoile34
Age: 2|  Weight: 8-10| J: L Dettori| T: A P O'Brien
16/1
Won a Group 3 on debut at Naas but couldn't build on that when well beaten in a Newmarket Group 1 last time out. Booking of Dettori a plus but wide draw is off-putting.

Forecasts

Daahyeh (7/2), Albigna (4/1), Sweet Melania (6/1), Crystalle (7/1), Selflessly (8/1), Fair Maiden (14/1), Tango (14/1), Sharing (16/1), Etoile (16/1), Abscond (20/1), Shadn (20/1), Living In The Past (25/1), Unforgetable (40/1), Croughavouke (66/1)

Verdict

There was plenty to like about ALBIGNA's win last time out in the Marcel Boussac and the filly still gives the impression she remains capable of better. Daahyeh is a threat having won with a gutsy effort when dropped in class last time out. Living In The Past could be the each-way angle in to the race from a handy draw.
