Something Enticing^p³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding| OR: 98| D

9/1

Useful filly who arrives on the back of an excellent second in handicap at Newmarket 5 weeks ago. Trip/ground should be fine and was runner-up in this last year so clearly needs considering.

Form: 12-7202

Sweet Believer²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: A J Farragher| T: W J Haggas| OR: 105

9/2

Successful 3 times last season and ran well on return from 11-month break when second of 5 to Bayside Boy in listed race at Sandown (1m, heavy). Backed that up when excellent second in Balmoral at Ascot 3 weeks ago. Form pick back up in trip.

Form: 2138-22

Darmoiselle⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 93| D

11/1

Beautifully-bred filly. Promising 10f winner at Haydock in May. Looked rusty after 4 months off when ninth in Pride Stakes at Newmarket but firmly back on track when runner-up in listed race at Lingfield 9 days ago. Ground an unknown.

Form: 0192

Eidikos^p⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: P J McDonald| T: E Bethell| OR: 95

66/1

Responded well to this headgear when excellent second in Newmarket handicap 7 weeks ago but stamina will be stretched in these conditions up in trip.

Life Of Dreams⁹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Jim Crowley| T: C Appleby| OR: 100| D

11/2

Dubawi filly out of a Lancashire Oaks/Lillie Langtry winner. Justified market confidence in ready fashion on debut at Newbury and built on that when 5½ lengths second to Emily Upjohn in Musidora at York. Resumed progress when close third in Group 3 at Deauville and remains unexposed.

Form: 1253

Mellow Yellow³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: S Donohoe| T: W J Haggas| OR: 88| BF

11/1

Lightly-raced filly who showed big improvement when defying a penalty at Wolverhampton on return but only sixth of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (12f, good, 5/4) 5 weeks ago, racing freely. Remains with potential back down in trip.

Form: 21-16

(18)

Misty Dancer¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: J Mitchell| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 94| D

5/2

Improved when landing a Goodwood maiden in August and further progress when following up in handicaps at Ayr/Newbury. Conditions no problem and open to more improvement up in class.

Form: 542111

Moon De Vega¹³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R M Beckett| OR: 98| C

7/1

Highly tried this season, showing useful form in defeat, and no surprise if she featured back down in class.

Form: 551-484

28/1

Race didn't pan out for her when twelfth of 28 in Sandringham Stakes (Handicap) at Royal Ascot (8f, good to firm) but made amends in handicap at Hamilton. Down the field when tried at this level in France last month, however. Change of headgear

14/1

Sea The Stars filly who confirmed debut promise when taking Chelmsford novice (10f) and showed improved form upped significantly in grade when third in a listed event at Newmarket next time. Disappointed at York since but type to bounce back after a break.

Wynter Wildes³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Rowan Scott| T: C Fellowes| OR: 82

Forecasts

Misty Dancer (5/2), Sweet Believer (9/2), Life Of Dreams (11/2), Moon De Vega (7/1), Something Enticing (9/1), Mellow Yellow (11/1), Darmoiselle (11/1), Star Fortress (14/1), Precisely (16/1), Pink Carnation (28/1), Queen Of The Skies (28/1), Zarabanda (50/1), White Willow (50/1), Eidikos (66/1), Wynter Wildes (66/1), Jasmine Joy (100/1), Smiling Jayne (100/1), Celtic Empress (250/1)

SWEET BELIEVER stays this far and is the form pick judged on her 2 runs this season, so gets the vote with conditions no problem. Darmoiselle improved again when runner-up at this level at Lingfield and could well have more to offer still given her pedigree, while Life of Dreams and Misty Dancer are also on an upward curve.
