Altiste²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: T P Queally| T: G G Margarson

200/1

100/1, ninth of 11 in novice at Kempton (7f) on debut 23 days ago, very slowly away. Big step forward required now.

Bint Al Anood²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden

12/1

Dubawi filly made promising start given she was very green when seventh of 11 in maiden at Newcastle (8f, 11/1) on debut 28 days ago. Sure to build on that intial effort so not taken lightly.

Form: 7

Companionship¹⁶

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

4/6

17/2, very much caught the eye on debut when second of 11 in 1m Kempton novice 16 days ago, finishing strongly having run green. Clear form pick so well-bred daughter of Galileo holds leading claims.

Form: 2

Dusk Chorus⁶⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: M Dwyer| T: B J Meehan

100/1

40/1, seventh of 8 in novice at Bath (8f, firm) on debut 60 days ago. Needs significantly more.

Hamhama⁴⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Jim Crowley| T: J & T Gosden

20/1

7/1, badly in need of the experience when seventh of 10 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, soft) on debut 49 days ago. Bred to be at least useful so sure to do better now.

Form: 7

Ms Gandhi¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: R Varian| OR: 73| BF

7/1

15/8, built on debut effort when fourth of 11 in 1m Kempton novice 16 days ago, despite racing too freely. Should improve further so worth considering.

Form: 64

Princess Elektra¹⁵

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

200/1

Twice-raced maiden, never-dangerous fifth of 7 over C&D (66/1) 15 days ago. Has lots to find here.

Form: 85

Quenelle D'or²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: James Doyle| T: H Palmer

10/3

10/1, made a promising start when second of 8 in maiden at Nottingham (8.3f, soft) 23 days ago. Golden Horn filly is open to improvement so much respected.

Form: 2

Quintessa

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: H Crouch| T: A King

80/1

Iffraaj filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, notably smart 1¾m Gold Mount. Dam 1¼m-1½m winner. Lots to like on paper so newcomer is no forlorn hope.

We'll Meet Again¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding

125/1

8/1, always behind after tardy start when ninth of 14 in 7f Kempton novice on debut 11 days ago. Sort to do better in due course.

Form: 9

Who Cares Wins

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: A King

100/1

Hallowed Crown filly. Half-sister to several winners, notably stable's smart stayer Who Dares Wins. Dam 7f winner. Debutante catches eye on pedigree so she's not without interest. Market can guide.

Forecasts

Companionship (4/6), Quenelle D'or (10/3), Ms Gandhi (7/1), Bint Al Anood (12/1), Hamhama (20/1), Qalansia (20/1), Quintessa (80/1), Who Cares Wins (100/1), Dusk Chorus (100/1), We'll Meet Again (125/1), Altiste (200/1), Princess Elektra (200/1)

Some interesting juveniles on show but it's hard to ignore the claims of Willie Haggas' Galileo filly COMPANIONSHIP who shaped really well when runner-up at Kempton and sets a high standard. Bint Al Anood was too green to do herself justice when a debut seventh at Newcastle so John Gosden's daughter of Dubawi promises to take a big step forward here, with Ms Gandhi looking the pick of the rest.
