10/1
220,000gns yearling; didn't necessarily need to improve from her debut third in order to justify favouritism on the Polytrack at Lingfield (7f); doubly-represented trainer continues to fire in the winners; appears vulnerable under a penalty.

25/1
160,000gns yearling; blew the start and lost all chance on debut (Kempton); much wiser on her next outing at Chelmsford (7f) when springing a 33-1 surprise with a power packed late thrust; penalised accordingly for the switch to turf.

9/1
Showcasing filly; half-sister to Chatham House (7f); drew upon the experience of her debut run when pinging the lids and making all to score under James Doyle at Chelmsford (7f) last November - fourth placed Indie Angel a winner since; penalised.

Horse silk
50/1
By Dawn Approach from a French (1m1f) and German (1m2f Listed) winner; very highly tried (and basically clueless) on C&D debut; seemingly brought along steadily since and probably one for further down the line.

14/1
Fourth foal from a 1m-1m2f (inc Listed) winning dam; half-sister to the 7f-1m2f winner Nearooz and the 7f Fibresand winner Jadeyra; stablemate of Lamorna; the market should illustrate what can be expected of her on racecourse debut.

Horse silk
50/1
Fifth foal from an unraced half-sister to seven winners; half-sister to the 6f-1m2f winner Van Dyke (GB & Australia); the sneaking suspicion is that she's likely to find a few too strong.

Horse silk
20/1
Dark Angel filly (unsold as a yearling for €140,000); fourth foal from the 6f-1m Grp 3 scorer Marvada; half-sister to Sunday's Newmarket winner Terebellum (1m2f) and Mount Wellington (6f-7f); unraced stablemate of the more experienced African Dream.

(7)
Horse silk
33/1
90,000gns yearling; first foal from a half-sister to the 2000 Guineas winner Footstepsinthesand; the riding arrangements would imply that she's the stable second-string behind Baarrij.

125/1
Roderic O'Connor filly; failed to shine brightly in two starts on the Polytrack at Kempton (7f) and to all intents and purposes is surely just making up the numbers in today's contest.

Horse silk
10/3
Australia filly; fifth foal from the 6f winner Strictly Dancing (trainer saddled her winning half-sisters); was far from disgraced when a closing fifth of 12 to Snow Shower in a 7f back end Salisbury fillies' maiden (good).

10/11
Dansili filly; went close on any number of occasions as a juvenile, most notably when going down by ½L to stablemate Daahyeh in the Group 2 Rockfel Stakes at Newmarket (7f, good); this looks a perfect opportunity to break the maiden status.

Forecasts

Stylistique (10/11), Quickstep Lady (10/3), Exhibit (9/1), African Dream (10/1), Baarrij (14/1), Lady Andaz (20/1), Dawning (25/1), Lamorna (33/1), Alezan (50/1), Excelfilly (50/1), Sarayaat (50/1), Lucky Draw (125/1)

Verdict

The in-form John Gosden saddles two runners, with African Dream seemingly ahead of the newcomer Lady Andaz on the basis of riding arrangements. However, she didn't need to improve upon the form of her debut in order to justify favouritism on the AW at Lingfield Park and could be vulnerable under her incurred penalty. Therefore, this race presents the Rockfel Stakes second STYLISTIQUE with the perfect opportunity to shed her maiden status at the seventh attempt. Given an official BHA handicap mark of 106, she should prove capable of stamping that perceived degree of authority over her rivals.
