Debut Chepstow winner in July and unlucky not to finish closer when third in a sales race at the Curragh in September, denied a clear run and forced very wide. Newmarket's undulations didn't suit her in the Oh So Sharp on final 2-y-o run and this scopey filly can do better this year.
|
Confirmed the promise of her debut when landing the odds in a Beverley novice in August and improved another chunk when following up in 6f Firth of Clyde at Ayr a month later. Bred to stay well and 7f+ will suit this year, so has to be of serious interest on reappearance.
|
€70,000 foal, €300,000 2-y-o, Pinatubo filly. Dam, third at 1m, sister to 1m winner Chartreuse and 1¼m winner Tycoon, out of useful 1m winner Bufera. Must have breezed well and she created a very favourable impression when slamming 8 rivals at Southwell in November. Hood on and lots more to come.
|
Invincible Army filly who shaped well when third in 7f listed race at Deauville in July and resumed from 6 months off with a cosy success in 7f Southwell maiden in January. Improved again when second upped to 1m at Kempton. Fitness assured and she's going the right way.
|
Excelled herself when fourth to Catching the Moon in the Group 3 Firth of Clyde at Ayr and didn't have too much difficulty landing the odds back down in class at Leicester. Stayed on for second in the mud at Doncaster (6f) final start and 7f the logical step up on reappearance.
|
New Bay filly. Sister to smart winner up to 1½m Pride of Arras and closely related to useful winner up to 1¼m Patient Dream and 1½m winner Latin Verse. Dam 1½m winner. From a family connections know well and she was a ready winner starting out over 1m at Southwell in November. In expert hands.
|
Novice winner at Ascot over 6f on second start in July and pitched into Group company after, she showed improved form, 3¼ lengths fourth of 5 to Green Spirit in Prix d'Aumale at Longchamp. Useful filly who returns with a hood on for the first time.
|
Attracted support and made a winning debut in taking fashion in 14-runner novice at Southwell in December (7f), scoring readily despite coming from off a modest pace. Bare form nothing to write home about but she can only improve.
|
Kameko filly who was successful on her debut at Ripon (6f) last May and signed off with a very good fifth of 7 in Prestige (cheekpieces on) at Goodwood in August. Matched that form when making a winning return over 1m at Kempton and way she shaped that day, return to 7f may not be ideal.
|
Daughter of Wootton Bassett who created a favourable impression when making all on third start at Haydock in October (6f). Similar form when third in big-field listed event over the same trip at Newmarket a fortnight later and 7f should suit on reappearance.
|
Bred to be useful and she overcame trouble in running to make a winning debut in 9-runner novice over C&D in June, showing a sharp turn of foot when in the clear. Subsequent absence a slight concern but patient yard adept with similar types.
|
Havana Grey filly who made a winning start at this venue over 6f last summer. Advanced her form in defeat after but heavy defeat in the Rockfel Stakes was a backward step. Off 6 months but stable started the campaign well.
|
Lope de Vega filly made a highly-promising start when bagging a C&D maiden on debut in August and followed up in equally fine style at Leicester 17 days ago. Newmarket may not been the ideal track for her when she was well held in the Rockfel Stakes but she remains a good prospect this year,
|
60,000 gns foal, 110,000 gns yearling. Half-sister to 2-y-o 7f winner Mythical Dancer. Dam 1¼m/11f winner. Runner-up on debut over 6f at Haydock in October and confirmed that promise when going one place better over 7f a fortnight later. Looks a powerful galloper for her leading yard.

Touleen (5/4), Blingy's Sister (9/1), Catching The Moon (9/1), K Sarra (10/1), Splish Splash (12/1), Domina Ignis (14/1), Zooming (14/1), Princess Petrol (14/1), Zaravina (14/1), Sukanya (16/1), Ellusive Butterfly (20/1), Spinning Lizzie (22/1), Stimulative Trip (25/1), Silenciosa (33/1), Figjam (66/1)
Having looked all over a Group performer on her first 2 starts, TOULEEN came unstuck in the Rockfel on her final 2-y-o start. This more conventional track should suit on reappearance and she can get back on the up. As is often the case in these races, many are open to plenty of improvement, notably Zooming and K Sarra.
