Won a maiden at Navan and handicap at Down Royal last year, and placed in Listed races around this trip on last two starts. Just about sets the standard, and likely to make a bold bid with her yard in fine form.

Roscommon maiden winner on sole 2019 start, and improved despite only finishing sixth of 9 to Lemista in Park Express Stakes at Naas in March. Needs to improve, but that looks possible given profile.

Form looks a little patchy, but she ran well several times in Group company last season, notably when fourth in G3 Snow Fairy Stakes at the Curragh. Poor effort on return, but is capable of a big run if bouncing back.

Won a maiden and two handicaps at around 1¼m last term, showing progressive form. Takes a jump in class, but she will continue to improve, and is likely to take a hand in the finish if staying this longer trip.

Won her first two races last year in game style, and improved again when fourth of 12 to Solage in a 1½m Listed race at Naas on final start. Type to do better again this term, and is adaptable regarding ground/tactics. Shortlisted.

Won a maiden in France last year for Henri Devin, but only useful form on balance, and improvement required if she's to gain black type. Hooded now making debut for new yard.

Won G2 Prix de Royallieu at Longchamp as a 3-y-o, but missed last year. and below form when second of 4 to Bowerman in minor event at Dundalk in January. Entitled to come on plenty for that run, however.

Verdict

LOVEISTHEHIGHERLAW was progressive last year, and didn't really get the race run to suit when a close fourth on her only start at this level. The lightly-raced daughter of Kodiac will keep progressing, and is taken to get the better of standard setter Camphor. Princess Yaiza would be the pick on her 3-y-o form in France, but has a little to prove after a low-key return having missed 2019. Heliac has something to find, but was progressive last season, and is another with more to offer this season.
