Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: D Tudhope| T: K R Burke| D

11/2

Wootton Bassett filly who built on promising first effort when easily landing 6f Haydock maiden at the start of the month. Sure to improve again, and well in the mix.

Form: 31

Crazyland³⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: H Crouch| T: C G Cox| OR: 84

25/1

Made winning bow at Windsor before good third in the Marygate at York. Never able to challenge when thirteenth in Queen Mary Stakes here last time but no forlorn hope in this less exacting company.

Form: 130

Delmona⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: David Egan| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 89

11/1

Progressive filly who made a winning debut at Bath and posted very good third of 22 in Super Sprint at Newbury 7 days ago. One for the shortlist.

Form: 153

Desert Dreamer¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Oisin Murphy| T: S C Williams| OR: 103| D

9/4

Bagged a maiden/novice at Newmarket on her first couple of starts and she has continued on the up, excellent second in Group 2 Duchess of Cambridge Stakes on July course there 15 days ago. Player.

Form: 11022

El Hadeeyah¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: W Buick| T: J Tate| OR: 81| D

20/1

7/2, opened her account at the fourth attempt in 6f minor event at Lingfield (AW) 12 days ago. This demands a lot more, however.

Form: 3291

Miss Calculation¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: S De Sousa| T: R Menzies| D

33/1

22/1, comfortable debut scorer in 6-runner maiden at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Profitable filly has more to offer so she's no forlorn hope in this higher grade.

Form: 1

Nazanin³²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| D

9/1

Declaration of War filly who got off to a winning start in 11-runner minor event (6/5) at Newbury (6f, good to soft) 32 days ago. Sure to build on that, but others possess better form.

Form: 1

(8)

Sassy Rascal¹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Tom Marquand| T: G Boughey| BF

25/1

Has shown fair form when runner-up in 5f maidens at Bath and Yarmouth this summer. Likely to do better still, but those efforts leave her with plenty to find in this tougher company.

Form: 22

(11)

System²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: P J Dobbs| T: R Hannon| D

7/2

Much improved from her debut when 22/1-winer of 6f listed race at Newmarket 28 days ago by neck from Desert Dreamer. In the picture with better still to come.

Form: 21

Zain Claudette²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Ray Dawson| T: I Mohammed & J Santos| D

15/2

Built on debut promise with ready success in 6f maiden at Newmarket 29 days ago. Open to further improvement, and she shouldn't be underestimated.

Form: 21

Forecasts

Desert Dreamer (9/4), System (7/2), Attagirl (11/2), Zain Claudette (15/2), Nymphadora (8/1), Nazanin (9/1), Delmona (11/1), El Hadeeyah (20/1), Crazyland (25/1), Sassy Rascal (25/1), Miss Calculation (33/1)

Stuart Williams' likeable DESERT DREAMER sets a high standard on the form of her recent Newmarket Group 2 second and she can get back to winning ways. System is less exposed and feared most if, as expected, building on her listed win at the same track. Zain Claudette shouldn't be underestimated.
