Dubai Fountain¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: P J McDonald| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 98| C

17/2

Made all in small-field 7f novices on first 2 starts and has acquitted herself well in stronger company since. Step up in trip should suit, so likely to put up a solid showing.

Form: 11224

Great Vibes²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Callum Shepherd| T: George Scott| OR: 84

28/1

Boasts a progressive profile and completed a winning nursery debut with a bit to spare at Newmarket 26 days ago. This is a marked step up but she could do better still.

Form: 531

Indigo Girl^h¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: L Dettori| T: J & T Gosden| D

10/3

Beautifully bred filly who overcame inexperience to make a winning start in ready fashion at Yarmouth, easing into contention and readily quickening clear. Looks a top prospect.

Form: 1

Lilac Road²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 86| CD

10/1

Mastercraftsman filly who left debut form behind when off the mark in a novice over C&D 26 days ago, well ridden from the front. Needs another chunk of improvement.

Form: 51

Mere Green⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: D Nolan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 80

125/1

Seemed to excel herself when fifth of 8 in the listed Rose Bowl Stakes at Newbury on second start but yet to fully back it up and some way short of the standard required to compete in this.

Form: 5582

Prado¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Jim Crowley| T: C Hills| OR: 90

25/1

Overcame inexperience to make a winning debut in comfortable fashion at Salisbury but failed to improve (on softer ground) when runner-up in Prestige Stakes at Goodwood 12 days ago. Up against it.

Form: 12

(4)

Star Of Emaraaty³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan| OR: 102

12/1

Improving filly who caused a shock when landing the Sweet Solera Stakes at Newmarket comfortably from Dubai Fountain. No fluke about that, so shouldn't be underestimated.

Form: 20141

Ubuntu¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: W Buick| T: J P O'Brien

12/1

Confirmed debut promise when narrowly touched off by Divinely in Flame of Tara Stakes as the Curragh 13 days ago and, with more progress on the cards, she's a big player.

Form: 53

Zabeel Queen⁴⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: R Varian

6/5

Frankel Filly who quickened up smartly to make a winning start in a hot Ascot novice 47 days ago, and with big improvement on the cards, boasts leading claims despite this marked step up in grade.

Form: 1

Forecasts

Zabeel Queen (6/5), Indigo Girl (10/3), Dubai Fountain (17/2), Lilac Road (10/1), Star Of Emaraaty (12/1), Ubuntu (12/1), Prado (25/1), Great Vibes (28/1), Mere Green (125/1)

ZABEEL QUEEN looked potentially out of the top drawer when making a successful debut at Ascot on debut and is fancied to prove the point stepping up in class. Indigo Girl, another impressive winning newcomer from a top yard, ranks as the main danger ahead of Ubuntu.
