14/1

Foaled April 29. Too Darn Hot filly. Dam, 1¼m winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 1¾m (stayed 2m) Red Galileo out of useful 1½m winner Ivory Gala. A respected debutante, particularly if the betting vibes are strong.

Bassrah¹⁰¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Paddy Bradley| T: C Fellowes| BF

14/1

Very green on debut and duly improved when length second over 6f at Yarmouth (good) in May. Off since. The step up to 7f will suit but the Yarmouth form is nothing special so she'll need to improve.

Form: 62

Foaled February 4. Dubawi filly. Sister to 6f winner Lucky Gift. Dam 2-y-o 5f-6f winner (Queen Mary Stakes/Duchess of Cambridge Stakes). Top yard is operating at a 41% strike-rate with 2-y-os this season.

Lady Ranya

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: Harry Charlton

50/1

Foaled February 13. Camelot filly. Sister to smart 1m-10.2f winner Sinjaari and half-sister to several winners, including useful 6f-7f winner Grand Karat and 5f-6f winner Bright. From a family which has served connections well but she'll need a useful effort to take this on debut.

18/1, seventh of 8 in novice at Newcastle (7f) on debut 9 days ago. More one for the longer term on that evidence.

Tall Trees³⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: J P Spencer| T: B J Meehan| OR: 91

6/4

Fairly useful form, finishing third in a C&D listed race (good) on latest start. Sets the standard for a stable which had a couple of 2-y-o winners at Newbury earlier in the week.

Forecasts

Tall Trees (6/4), Flower Show (6/4), Thi Qar (2/1), Victoria Night (7/1), Empress Jingu (12/1), Bassrah (14/1), Alanah Bananah (14/1), Lady Ranya (50/1), Ortanique (300/1)

THI QAR has been entered in Group races on the back of her encouraging debut second at Newmarket and is taken to improve past the more-established Tall Trees. Money for one or more of the newcomers would also bring them into the reckoning, with Flower Show one who makes obvious appeal given Charlie Appleby's excellent 2-y-o strike-rate.
