5/2
Course winner. Blinkered for 1st time, good second of 12 in handicap (7/2) at Cork (12f, good to soft) 29 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Visor on now and open to more progress stepping up in trip.

7/1
6/5, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Down Royal (12.7f, good to firm) 34 days ago, suited by increase in trip. Stable in good form and may well do better still.

5/1
2 wins from 4 runs this year, latest at Lingfield in May, but well-beaten ninth of 14 to Snowfall in Oaks at Epsom (12f, soft) 34 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and no forlorn hope.

Forecasts

High Heels (9/4), Federica Sophia (5/2), Believe In Love (9/2), Sherbet Lemon (5/1), Forbearance (7/1), Tashi (16/1), Glinting (20/1), Camphor (25/1)

Verdict

FEDERICA SOPHIA's form is on an upward curve and, with this step up to 1m6f promising to suit her too, Dermot Weld's daughter of Galileo is fancied to claims her biggest success yet. Believe In Love has a poor reappearance run to overcome but rates the form pick at her best so can't be taken lightly, with the progressive Forbearance another who can have a say.

  1. FEDERICA SOPHIA (IRE)
  2. BELIEVE IN LOVE (IRE)
  3. FORBEARANCE (IRE)
