6/1

Useful mare who won 4 times last season, notably listed race at York and Group 3 at Newmarket. Yet to hit those levels so far this season, though latest fifth of 12 to Rosscarbery in Stanerra Stakes at Leopardstown was at least a step back in the right direction.

Form: 131-675

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Ross Coakley| T: E Walker| OR: 99

16/1

All the better for return when third in York Group 3 in May, likely to have finished in front of Urban Artist but for being hampered. Confirmed that improvement when winning listed race at Pontefract 6 weeks ago, pulling clear with the runner-up. Return to this trip will suit and worth a shot.

Form: 336-431

Sea La Rosa²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 106

9/4

Steadily progressive last season, successful 4 times from 7 starts, and picked up where she left off when winning Group 3 at Haydock on return despite pulling hard. Smart form when second to the potentially high-class Free Wind in Lancashire Oaks there next time. Should stay and form pick.

Form: 2131-12

Urban Artist⁴²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-8| J: Jason Hart| T: H Morrison| OR: 100| C

18/1

Useful mare who ran very close to her best after 7 months off when 1¼ lengths second of 6 in Bronte Cup at York (13.8f, good to soft) in May. Trip too far in Queen Alexandra at Royal Ascot since and has a good record here, though fast ground wouldn't be ideal.

Form: 3268-26

Viola¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 97

14/1

Much improved as a 4-y-o last season, showing useful form to win 3 handicaps. Excuses at Lingfield on return before good second to Sea La Rosa in Group 3 at Haydock. Not so good in listed race at Newmarket 2 weeks ago, however.

Form: 231-023

9/1

Camelot filly who 3 of first 4 starts, notably 14.4f listed race at Chester last summer. Better form in defeat upped in class since, third in Park Hill at Doncaster before beaten over 5 lengths in Prix de Royallieu at Longchamp when last seen in October. Not taken lightly on belated return.

Emily Dickinson¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 103| BF

13/8

Naas maiden winner on third start. Excellent short-head second in Group 3 at Leopardstown (14f, good, 13/2) earlier this month, suited by increase in trip. Shaped as if still in good form when fourth in Irish Oaks 9 days later and return to this trip will suit. Probably has more to offer still.

Emily Dickinson (13/8), Sea La Rosa (9/4), Forbearance (6/1), Yesyes (9/1), Viola (14/1), Glenartney (16/1), Urban Artist (18/1), Typewriter (33/1)

EMILY DICKINSON shaped as if still in good form when fourth in the Irish Oaks 2 weeks ago, the drop back in trip clearly against her, and she looks set for a big run back down in class and back up in distance. Sea La Rosa showed smart form when runner-up in the Lancashire Oaks at Haydock and is an obvious threat, while Glenartney shouldn't be underestimated at this higher level.
