Duveen²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Molly Gunn⁽⁷⁾| T: A Carson

300/1

Poet's Word filly looked a longer-term prospect when seventh of 8 in minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW, 125/1) on debut 21 days ago. Tough to fancy.

Form: 7

Kalama Sunrise

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Charlie Bennett| T: J Channon

66/1

Coulsty filly. Half-sister to several winners, including winner up to 1m Yorkshire Icon and 2-y-o 5f winner Amahoro. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner. Others appeal as likelier debut winners.

Form:

Midsummer Dance

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Collen Storey| T: J & T Gosden

16/1

$300,000 yearling, Mendelssohn filly. Half-sister to useful 11.4f/1½m winner Fox Vardy and minor US winner by Medaglia d'Oro. Worth market check on debut.

Form:

Pillarsofcreation

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Cameron Noble| T: R Varian

33/1

Roaring Lion filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful winner up to 2m Themaxwecan and useful 1m-1¼m winner Mars Landing and 1m/9f winner Moai. Dam 2-y-o 1m winner. One to note on debut.

Form:

Queen Regent

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden

3/1

Roaring Lion filly. Half-sister to several winners, including very smart winner up to 6f Astrophysical Jet and smart winner up to 1m Know It All. Lot to like on paper.

Form:

Senesi⁵²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: K P De Foy

13/2

Kingman filly shaped promisingly on debut and again left the impression she was capable of better when fourth of 11 in minor event (14/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 52 days ago, keeping on having been caught further back than ideal. Leading player.

Form: 34-

Spring Promise²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: James Doyle| T: C Appleby

8/11

Lope De Vega filly. Half-sister to very smart winner up to 1m Naval Crown. 13/8, second of 8 in minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW) on debut 21 days ago, finishing strongly after conceding first run. Likely to improve and sets a good standard.

Form: 2

(8)

Veil Of Shadows

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: J P Spencer| T: C Appleby

8/1

Frankel filly. Closely related to very smart French 1m-9.5f winner Impulsif and half-sister to 7.5f winner Colour of Light. Of obvious interest on debut.

Spring Promise (8/11), Queen Regent (3/1), Senesi (13/2), Veil Of Shadows (8/1), Midsummer Dance (16/1), Pillarsofcreation (33/1), Kalama Sunrise (66/1), Duveen (300/1), Athena Ballerina (300/1)

The penny dropped late for SPRING PROMISE on debut last month and she is sure to progress with that experience under her belt, perhaps markedly so. Senesi has showed up well in a pair of starts so far and is much respected, whilst it would no surprise if newcomers Queen Regent and Veil of Shadows were able to make their presence felt.
