Divina Gloria²⁷⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: K A Ryan

9/2

Dabirsim half-sister to useful winners Amarena (1¼m/1m3f) and Acadius (7f). Had a pair of next-time-out winners behind when landing a 1m novice at Thirsk in August, and should improve, for all she needs to to defy a penalty.

Form: 1-

Anointed

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: K T O'Neill| T: J & T Gosden

22/1

Out of Oaks and Irish Oaks winner Sariska, and therefore related to a couple of useful winners. One of two for owner and trainer in this contest, and riding arrangements suggests she's the lesser fancied of the pair.

Asiaaf

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Jim Crowley| T: M P Tregoning

33/1

First foal of a maiden sister to high-class winner up to 1¼m Dunboyne Express (raced as Dan Excel in Hong Kong), from family of Oaks winner Love Divine. Worth a check in the market given smart pedigree.

Au Clair De Lune

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Harry Bentley| T: George Scott

80/1

Sister to King Edward VII Stakes third Eagles By Day out of G3 Lillie Langtry Stakes winner Missunited. In training with Richard O'Brien last year, but withdrawn (in season) on intended debut. Market best guide to her prospects.

Form:

(10)

Dusk

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: R L Moore| T: Sir Michael Stoute

10/1

By Galileo out of connections' Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf winner Dank. Bred to be smart, and yard already off the mark this week. Shortlist material on that basis.

Form:

(8)

Horn Of Plenty

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding

40/1

Golden Horn filly who is closely related to 1½m winner Musaanada and is a half-sister to listed 1m1f winner Greatwood. Has quite an appealing pedigree, albeit in a race full of blue-bloods.

Lightness¹⁹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: N Mackay| T: J & T Gosden

6/1

Shamardal filly from family of top-notch US performer Bandini. Showed a fair level of ability when third of 11 to Waliyak in a 1m½f novice at Wolverhampton in November, and should progress. This does look a much deeper race, however.

Form: 3-

(7)

Quick Waltz

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Jason Watson| T: Sir Michael Stoute

50/1

Australia half-sister to useful 6f/7f winner Merlin and 2-y-o 7f winner Sovereign Grant, out of a useful 1¼m winner. Appears yard's neglected on jockey bookings, but folly to ignore completely.

Form:

(12)

Rozalia

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: George Wood| T: J R Fanshawe

150/1

Sir Percy half-sister to stable's Northumberland Plate winner Higher Power and 1m1f/1¼m winner Auntie Barber. She is bred for stamina, and looks sure to benefit from the outing.

Form:

(2)

Shatha

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Tom Marquand| T: C Hills

66/1

Muhaarar filly out of a Grade 1 winner in the US. Dam's five previous foals have registered just a minor US victory and a scrambled win over hurdles. Others have more to recommend them.

Form:

(11)

Sun Bear²¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: L Dettori| T: J & T Gosden

8/13

By Dubawi out of Irish Oaks winner Great Heavens (a full-sister to Nathaniel), and shaped encouragingly when short-head second of 11 to Moonlight In Paris in an extended 1m maiden at Nottingham in November. Sets the standard for others to match.

Form: 2-

Forecasts

Sun Bear (8/13), Gold Wand (2/1), Divina Gloria (9/2), Lightness (6/1), Dusk (10/1), Anointed (22/1), Asiaaf (33/1), Horn Of Plenty (40/1), Quick Waltz (50/1), Shatha (66/1), Au Clair De Lune (80/1), Rozalia (150/1)

SUN BEAR is a daughter of Classic-winning parents, and is the one to beat after going down in a photo on her debut at Nottingham in November. She gets the verdict on the evidence of the racecourse, for all the newcomer Dusk, a daughter of her owner's Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf winner Dank, is feared on paper. Divina Gloria merits respect as the winner of her only start, but a penalty may be hard to defy in what looks a warm race of its type.
