Useful 1¼m winner for Donnacha O'Brien last season who joined present stable for 360,000 gns over the winter and possible she found conditions too lively when well held last of 9 on last month's return in the Lancashire Oaks. Tongue tie now added for handicap debut and this can reveal more.

Space Blues filly who has done well for George Boughey this year, recording a third success at Windsor (1m) in May and runner up on 4 of her 5 starts since, chasing home Silver Lake at Goodwood prior to just being touched off in French listed race (1½m) 7 days ago.

Ghaiyyath filly who was an easy winner of a 9f Hamilton handicap in May. Dispelled a lesser effort without being seen to best effect when third in listed Glasgow stakes there (11f) 5 weeks ago. Feasible to think she could yet have more to offer and interesting back in handicap under Oisin Murphy.

Farhh filly who was successful on second start over 1m as a juvenile. Very lightly raced since and she showed more than previously this term with a hood reached for (also ridden more positively) when third in fillies handicap at Goodwood (1m) 24 days ago. Not taken lightly on first crack at 1¼m.

Won at Wolverhampton in December and has largely held her form well from marks in the mid 80's, posting a creditable fourth on the back of a 9-week break on all-weather at Lingfield (1¼m) 10 days ago. Little more needed back up in a higher grade, however.

Confirmed reappearance promise when making all over an extended 1½m at Chester's May meeting. Struggled in Group company next time but finished no better than midfield in a trio of handicaps back at Chester in recent months. Others rate stronger.

Night of Thunder filly who has improved considerably for the application of a tongue strap switched to handicaps, supplementing her breakthrough Salisbury victory in emphatic fashion at Goodwood (1¼m, good to firm) 21 days ago, by 3 lengths from Lady Dora Mae. Bold hat-trick bid incoming.

€250,000 daughter of Siyouni who hails from an excellent family. Won both races either side of finishing down the field in the Sandringham, latterly a much-improved success on first crack over this trip at Windsor. She's in the right hands to keep progressing and worth a second look.

Dubawi filly who came good in a Nottingham maiden over this trip in June and bettered that form when finishing second behind Silver Lake (conceding 7 lb to that rival at Salisbury next time). Again ran well when filling same spot at Newmarket and fancied to be thereabouts on these revised terms.

Successful 3 times at up to 1m during 2025 and proved better than ever when registering another all-weather victory at Newcastle (1m) in February. Hasn't been operating at quite the same level more recently, though, and she looks vulnerable to less exposed sorts.

Made all in 8.6f Wolverhampton maiden in February and has bettered that form in handicaps on turf in recent months, making the most of an uncontested lead when cosily doubling her tally at Beverley (1¼m, good to firm) 38 days ago. This tougher but she's in leading hands.

Took advantage of her weight-for-age allowance/contested pace when edging a tight finish in the Queen Mother's Cup here (11.8f) in June. Finished off as well as any when close fourth of 5 at Hamilton (13f) since but possible her mark is about right.

Progressive on the whole this season, winning at Newmarket and Hamilton prior to finishing second at Chester in June. Found things tougher away from her own sex when fifth of 9 in a C&D handicap 6 weeks ago but not without each-way hope here on balance of this year's form.

Ended long losing run against her own sex at Southwell in March and shaped as if still in decent heart on her next 2 outings. Slowly away and never figured next time and whilst she shaped as if needing last month's reappearance (after 4 months off) at Ascot, she looks up against it in this company.

Forecasts

Silver Lake (11/10), Lady Dora Mae (5/1), Plaid (7/1), Naga (8/1), Pendella (9/1), Food For Thought (11/1), Electrifarhh (14/1), Dream Camp (16/1), Janey Mackers (16/1), Dunkeld Dreamer (25/1), Rastnet (28/1), Folk Pageant (33/1), Sharpen (40/1), Patagonia Girl (50/1), Bearin Up (50/1), Bint Al Daar (66/1), Callianassa (80/1)

Verdict

SILVER LAKE has proved a different proposition since fitted with a tongue strap in handicaps over this sort of trip, decisively supplementing her breakthrough Salisbury victory at Goodwood 3 weeks ago. She looks a major player again in her hat-trick bid despite a 9 lb higher mark. Food For Thought and Lady Dora Mae have chased home the selection on each of their last 2 starts respectively and head the dangers, along with Dream Camp and Plaid.
