10/3

Ran well when third in listed and Group 3 races in May and June, but seventh of 10 in listed race at Newmarket (6/1) 26 days ago when leaving stalls awkwardly and bumped 3f out. May have more to offer over this trip.

7/2

Progressive, dug deep to win 10-runner Killarney handicap (11f) in first-time tongue strap (7/4) 30 days ago. Moving up to Group 3 represents a significant rise in class.

Royal Entry^v¹²

5/1

Won a maiden at this course and distance before showing good form in listed and Group 3 races. Fifth of 8 in Group 2 at Goodwood (6/1) 12 days ago when very slowly away and never on terms. Tendency to miss the break remains a concern in this company.

10/3

Has been placed in three of her last four starts including Group 3 at Navan and listed company at Naas. Third of 7 in Group 1 company at Curragh (20/1) 26 days ago where she showed improved form in a change of headgear. Proven over this trip and looks well placed dropping back to Group 3 level.

Forecasts

Island Hopping (10/3), Chorus (10/3), Elana Osario (7/2), Uluru (7/2), Elizabeth Jane (4/1), Royal Entry (5/1), Ameerat Jumaira (18/1), Calrissiana (66/1), Medici Venus (66/1)

ELIZABETH JANE is the highest-rated runner who has shown good form at this trip, including a Group 1 fourth last year. She should appreciate stepping back up in distance after a promising return from eight months off. Island Hopping comes here in good form after a Group 1 third and looks well placed at this level. Royal Entry has the ability but her tendency to miss the break remains a concern.
