Smart filly. Course winner. Only narrowly denied in Prix Jean Romanet at Deauville (9.9f, good) last month and holds strong claims on that form.

Much improved when fourth of 14 to You Got To Me in Irish Oaks (28/1) at this course (12f, good to firm) in July and remains with potential after only 3 starts.

Purple Lily⁵⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Billy Lee| T: P Twomey| OR: 107

2/1

Latest win at Naas in March. Upped her game further when 2¼ lengths third of 14 to You Got To Me in Irish Oaks at this course (12f, good to firm, 9/1) in July and should be suited by drop back in trip. Player.

Form: 1-1253

Forecasts

Purple Lily (2/1), Caught U Looking (6/1), Elizabeth Jane (6/1), Rogue Millennium (7/1), American Sonja (15/2), Hanalia (12/1), Wingspan (12/1), Lumiere Rock (12/1), Goldana (16/1), Bellezza (25/1)

PURPLE LILY ran a cracker in the Irish Oaks last time, despite seemingly being stretched by the longer trip. She is fancied to land the spoils. American Sonja and Elizabeth Jane rate the principal dangers.
