Overcame inexperience when making a successful debut at Bath in May. Ran to a similar level but found things tougher upped in grade when 7¾ lengths tenth of 25 to Libertango in Albany Stakes at Royal Ascot 3 weeks ago.

Made plenty of appeal on paper and, fitted with tongue strap for debut, was a ready winner of 8-runner minor event at Fairyhouse 9 days ago, only requiring a hands-and-heels ride. Up in grade but she's one to note with her respected trainer amongst the winners.

Sent off odds on for debut and justified her strength in the market when winning 7-runner novice at Ripon 6 weeks ago, scoring in ready fashion once the penny dropped. Seems sure to progress and she's an interesting contender for yard which won this race last year.

Bred to be smart and created a fine impression on debut when winning a novice at this venue in May. Still looked green when 7¾ lengths ninth of 25 to Libertango in Albany Stakes at Royal Ascot and she remains capable of better.

Made a most promising start when winning a Leicester maiden in May and overcame the rise in class in tremendous style when landing the 25-runner Albany Stakes at Royal Ascot, well on top at the finish. The one to beat with better still to come.

Hit the line strongly when scoring in 5-runner 6f novice at Carlisle 16 days ago. Straight up in grade but she's open to improvement for trainer who knows this family well.

900,000 gns breeze-up purchase who looked a very good prospect when making a winning debut at Nottingham. Built on that promise when second in the 27-runner Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot and she merits consideration with 6f promising to suit.

Showed encouragement first time up when third of 7 to Jolivette in novice at this venue in May. However, thirteenth of 25 in listed Windsor Castle Stakes at Royal Ascot 23 days ago and she faces another stiff task here.

Forecasts

Libertango (10/11), Senorita Bonita (9/4), Etonnante (10/1), Jolivette (12/1), Alwaysanangel (14/1), Ruby Moon (20/1), Acclamation Star (50/1), Troublesome Guest (100/1)

Verdict

LIBERTANGO has looked a very smart prospect when winning both of her races so far, travelling powerfully and overcoming trouble in running when landing the Albany at Royal Ascot, so she is taken to maintain her unbeaten record. Senorita Bonita has also made a very promising start to her career and is feared most, ahead of Etonnante.
