9/4

Dubawi filly who made a winning start by a clear margin at this course (7f, 7/4) back in November. The step up in trip should be no issue and she's seemingly the choice of William Buick.

10/3

1,500,000 gns Sea The Stars filly who overcame inexperience to make a winning debut at this C&D (5/6) 5 months ago, leading well inside final 1f. Should make considerable progress with that under her belt so has to be considered.

Running Lion¹⁷⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Oisin Murphy| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 96| D

6/4

Confirmed her debut promise in fine style when scoring at Lingfield in August and followed up in equally impressive fashion at Chelmsford City (8f) 6 months ago. She's sure to go on to better things and holds major claims of completing the hat-trick.

Ellexis²²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: J Mitchell| T: R A Teal

25/1

Off the mark with plenty in hand switched to all-weather in 10-runner maiden at Lingfield (7f) 7 months ago. She's open to further improvement but could struggle up against some powerful yards for her return.

Rich¹⁹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P J Dobbs| T: R Hannon| OR: 89

8/1

Cracksman filly who made a winning debut in a big field at Newbury (6f) at the end of May. Found things a bit too much of a challenge pitched in at deep end when down the field in Group 2 Rockfel 4 months later but she remains open to improvement.

Forecasts

Running Lion (6/4), Dancing Goddess (9/4), Rainbow Sky (10/3), Rich (8/1), Ellexis (25/1)

All of these 3-y-o fillies are open to improvement but RUNNING LION was mightily impressive on both outings on the all-weather last year, so John & Thady Gosden's charge is fancied to pick up from where she left off and complete the hat-trick. Charlie Appleby sends out a couple of once-raced course winners in Dancing Goddess and Rainbow Sky and they can chase home the selection in that order.
