40/1

Useful but has just an all-weather maiden win to her name and it's unlikely a second career success will arrive in this lofty company.

Coedana⁶¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Connor Beasley| T: E Bethell| OR: 105| D

10/3

Progressive filly who took a Pontefract listed race over this trip in June. Good 2¼ lengths sixth of 10 to Hotazhell in Group 1 at Munich (1¼m, good) at the end of July. Back up in trip. Likely to go well.

Form: 13-2316

Frances Ethel²²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 97| D

28/1

Useful 4-time winner in South Africa in 2024. Even better form in defeat in a handful of outings for current yard but latest 3¼ lengths fourth in listed race at Longchamp (1¾m, good) underlines she has a bit to find at this level.

Form: 9/952-44

66/1

Won a listed race at Toulouse (1½m, good) with a bit in hand last October but below par in similar events on both starts this year. Faces a stiffish task here.

Form: 0121-68

Inis Mor³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: R L Moore| T: D Menuisier| OR: 110

7/4

Won a listed race at Goodwood in May. Even better form when placing in the French and Irish Oaks on next 2 outings. Has soft ground as a possible excuse for her below-par effort in the Yorkshire Oaks last time. Leading form claims with sights lowered.

Prizeland¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR: 108| BF| D

11/4

Career best tackling going softer than good for the first time winning listed Galtres at York (1½m) last month. Creditable 4½ lengths fourth of 7 to Waardah in Park Hill at Doncaster (14.5f, good) 15 days ago. Enters calculations.

Form: 125214

Summerson^h³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Ray Dawson| T: R Varian| OR: 96| D

16/1

Kingman filly who opened her account in impressive style in 4-runner maiden at Ffos Las (1½m, good) in July. Blew the start when 8¼ lengths fourth of 13 to Prizeland in listed race (15/2) at York (1½m, soft) 36 days ago. Remains with potential after only 4 starts.

Form: 2214

Sunshine Star⁵⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Billy Loughnane| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 95

16/1

Confirmed her debut promise at the second time of asking when winning Lingfield novice in June. Denied a clear run when second on handicap debut next time and acquitted herself as well as could have been expected when fourth in listed race on the July Course (1½m) when last seen in early August.

Form: 2-6124

Venetia^p⁴⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R M Beckett| OR: 95

40/1

Responded well to first-time cheekpieces when making all in Goodwood listed race (1¼m, soft) in June but her limitations have seemingly been exposed at Group level twice since.

Form: 3-12187

(3)

Without Prejudice¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: W Buick| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 92

10/1

Half-sister to connections' high-class performer Emily Upjohn. Has looked an exciting prospect when winning fast-ground novice events over 1¼m on the July Course here and at Windsor this summer. This is a jump in class but she has the potential for significant improvement.

Forecasts

Inis Mor (7/4), Prizeland (11/4), Coedana (10/3), Francophone (8/1), Without Prejudice (10/1), Brielle (14/1), Sunshine Star (16/1), Summerson (16/1), Frances Ethel (28/1), Venetia (40/1), Club Class (40/1), Ryka (66/1)

INIS MOR presumably failed to cope with soft ground in the Yorkshire Oaks and a return to the form she showed when placed in the French/Irish Oaks prior to that will make her tough to beat. Prizeland and Coedana are next best on form, while the unbeaten Without Prejudice looks capable of making an impact in this higher grade.
