Resumed her progress on just her second try at 1m when winning 23-runner handicap at Royal Ascot (firm) 24 days ago, picking up notably well to lead final 100 yd. Hit with 6 lb rise but another bold bid seems assured.
|
Ended a losing run in 5-runner handicap at Windsor in May and proved better than ever when following up at Goodwood later that month. Undone by a rise in the weights at York and ran about as well as could be expected when fourth Chipchase Stakes at Newcastle on most recent outing.
|
Won twice on turf last summer before excellent fourth in Group 2 here last July. Finished third in 7f Lingfield listed race on return in March before not being seen to best effect (not ideally placed) in Sandringham Handicap at Royal Ascot. His mark demands a bit more, though.
|
Useful form as a juvenile but yet to hit those heights as a 3-y-o, albeit losing all chance at start in Palace of Holyroodhouse Handicap at Royal Ascot last time. Significantly back up in trip.
|
Made steady progress at 2 yrs and shaped very well when second in 7f Goodwood handicap on reappearance in May, conceding first run. Well backed and much better than the result when sixth in the Sandringham Handicap at Royal Ascot since and remains of interest.
|
Confirmed promise of reappearance when resuming winning ways in comfortable fashion at Newmarket (Rowley) in May and returned to a similar level when third of 12 in C&D handicap 16 days ago. Should remain competitive.
|
4-time winner on all-weather who was too free upped to a stiff 1m on turf debut when a long behind Miss Information in Kensington Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot last month. Back down in trip.
|
Got back on the up when making a winning handicap debut at Doncaster (6f) in April, keeping on gamely. However, proved to be a disappointment at York 7 weeks later. Must bounce back.
|
Newbury maiden winner who found only one too good in fast-ground handicaps at Yarmouth (7f) and Newmarket (1m) on first 2 starts this season. Found run of good form coming to a halt in Sandringham Handicap at Royal Ascot last time. Bounce back required.

Forecasts
Miss Nightfall (2/1), Miss Information (5/2), Royal Velvet (4/1), Havana Pusey (9/1), Bountiful (14/1), Raneenn (18/1), Saariselka (22/1), Shallow (33/1), Maw Lam (33/1)
MISS NIGHTFALL has shaped notably well on both starts this season, including in the Sandringham Handicap at Royal Ascot latterly and surely won't be long in resuming winning ways on that evidence. Miss Information was quite impressive in the Kensington Palace Stakes at the Royal Meeting and can make another bold bid from a 6 lb higher mark, while Royal Velvet got back on track with a good third over C&D recently and ought to remain competitive.
