Foaled April 11. 1,000 gns yearling, Bangkok filly. Dam French 2-y-o 1m winner out of useful winner up to 6.5f (including at 2 yrs) Kenouska. Brushed aside on debut at Windsor so easy to look elsewhere.
|
Foaled February 23. 320,000 gns 2-y-o, St Mark's Basilica filly. Half-sister to useful winner up to 1m Al Qudra. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Clearly very popular at the breeze-ups and produced a very promising effort behind a smart 2-y-o on debut at Naas. Will progress.
|
Foaled May 16. €15,000 foal, 22,000 gns yearling, Space Blues filly. Half-sister to 5f/6f Stay Smart. Dam 2-y-o 7f winner who stayed 1¼m. Very stiff ask on debut.
|
Kodi Bear filly who showed plenty of speed when placed both starts at up to 6f. Capable of winning a race, but at several notches below this level.
|
Promising debut from a tricky draw at Wolverhampton and confirmed that promise when landing 7-runner maiden at Chepstow 11 days ago. Should improve again, but she'll certainly need to to be competitive here.
|
Put experience to good use against the favoured rail when winning 6-runner novice at Lingfield 18 days ago. No reason to think she's any better than that level, so this looks too demanding.
|
Harry Angel filly who overcame greenness to bag 7-runner maiden at Newmarket (5f, good to soft) on debut in April. That race didn't really work out but she stepped forward herself when ½-length second of 9 to Secret Hideaway in listed race at York, collared late.
|
Maiden after 4 runs but stuck to her task 1¼ lengths second of 6 to Guernsey Lady in novice at Lingfield, not as well positioned as the winner who had the rail. Looks up against it in this company.
|
Has made a promising start to career, winning 12-runner fillies maiden special weight at Keeneland in April and followed up in 11-runner non-graded stakes on turf at Gulfstream last time by 3¾ lengths from Bibi Dahl, easily. Fascinating US raider.
|
Havana Grey filly who landed the odds with the minimum of fuss on debut in 4-runner maiden at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 25 days ago. Merely matched that form when 1¼ lengths third of 9 to Secret Hideaway in listed race at York.
|
Foaled February 7. £32,000 Cotai Glory filly. Dam, 2-y-o 5f winner, half-sister to useful winner up to 9f Fuente Ovejuna, out of half-sister to US Grade 1 1¼m winner Mast Track. Bred to be sharp and well on top at the finish when making all at Redcar 3 weeks ago. Open to progress.
|
US-bred filly and sales price rocketed to $600,000 this year. Knew her job when fourth of 13 starting out at the Curragh over 6f and now drops back in trip.
|
€125,000 yearling, Bungle Inthejungle filly. Sister to 3 winners, including very smart 5f winner Winter Power and winner up to 6f Jungle Fever. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner. Managed to overcome obvious signs of inexperience when landing 8-runner maiden at Thirsk a month ago. Sure to progress.
|
Starspangledbanner filly who was much sharper with her debut behind her and caused a 33/1 surprise in the listed Marygate at York a month ago. Stiffer 5f will be in her favour and she can improve further.
|
£160,000 breeze-up buy who showed something to work on behind Guernsey Lady and Justice Twice on debut at Lingfield 18 days ago. No surprise were she to improve by that pair but still up against it in this level.
|
Foaled February 3. 8,000 gns foal, 45,000 gns yearling, Lope Y Fernandez filly. Knew her job and readily took care of 2 rivals at Southwell in April but found the Lily Agnes all too much a month later. Blinkers reached for.
|
A'ali filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including 5f-6f winner Just A Spark and 6f winner Heart of Darkness and she looked potentially useful herself when landing 13-runner C&D maiden by 2½ lengths from Justice Twice, comfortably. Looks well worth a shot at this level with improvement on the cards.
|
Showed why she was pitched into listed company on debut (sixth of 9 in the Marygate) when landing the odds over 6f at Ripon a fortnight later, showing plenty of dash. Sure to build on that and she could be useful.
|
Starspangledbanner filly. Half-sister to 7f-1m winner Urban Decay and 1m/8.6f winner Radiant Beauty. Dam, 5f winner (including at 2 yrs), half-sister to useful 7f-1¼m winner Jungle Cove. Good-looking filly who looked a useful prospect when readily landing 4-runner novice at Newmarket last month.
|
Sales price shot up to 375,000 gns this year. Havana Grey half-sister to winner up to 6f Miss Show Off and 2-y-o 5f winner Miss Show Down. Dam useful Italian winner up to 1m (2-y-o 5f winner). Well on top at the finish when landing 7-runner novice at Yarmouth, a performance backed up by the clock.
|
Sister to useful 5f/6f winner Truly Enchanting and half-sister to useful 9f-10.7f winner Lily Pond. Found only one too good pitched into listed company at the Curragh last month and while she failed to land the odds behind a stablemate at Navan, it was still another promising run.
|
Bred to be quick and hammered in the betting, she made no mistake in 6-runner novice at Kempton in April. That wasn't a strong race and she's been absent since.
|
£650,000 2-y-o, Mehmas filly. Closely related to 7f winner Arctician and 2-y-o 6f winner Definitive. Dam unraced half-sister to high-class miler Lightning Spear. Another very expensive one from Goffs Breeze Ups and she looked a bit special at Nottingham 2 weeks ago. Open to significant improvement.

Forecasts
True Love (9/4), Zelaina (5/1), Lennilu (11/2), Society Kiss (7/1), Cardiff By The Sea (11/1), Spicy Marg (11/1), Staya (16/1), Harry's Girl (16/1), Love Olivia (25/1), Viamarie (28/1), Revival Power (33/1), Secret Hideaway (33/1), America (33/1), Paris Carver (40/1), Solana Rose (40/1), Eternal Solace (66/1), Miss Yechance (80/1), Flowerhead (100/1), Shine On Me (100/1), Justice Twice (100/1), Eskimo Pie (125/1), Guernsey Lady (200/1), Come On Eibhlin (250/1), Social Exclusion (250/1), Caitlin G (250/1)
She's understandably been very well found in the market, but ZELAINA looked all over a Group winner-in-waiting when annihilating the opposition at Nottingham a fortnight ago and expected to take a big leap forward from that, she'll take some stopping from her middle stall. Spicy Marg may have only beaten 3 rivals on her debut but she looked the part beforehand so she's on the shortlist, while unbeaten US raider Lennilu adds a bit of intrigue to the race.
