Superstar mare who’s now won six on the bounce. She took the G1 Prix De Saint-Cloud last time out in good style. Prior to that she ran away with the Grosser Preis Von Bayern (G1) in Munich.
She has been globetrotting recently, but she seems to have taken her form to a whole new level – she looks grown up and the full package now.
She could be very tough to beat here in what looks a fiercely competitive race.
May just have the edge.
Won here two starts ago in the Middleton Stakes (G2) which looked a good performance. She failed to fire next time out in the Nassau Stakes though, where she was ultimately well held by Nashwa.
She could be more competitive upped in trip, but she’s unproven over this distance against a seriously high calibre of horse today. Avoidable.
Hugely admirable Ruler Of The World filly, who is bidding for five wins on the bounce. She beat Love on her final start last year and returned with a cataclysmic bang when running off the back of a long lay-off, to beat My Astra in the G1 Pretty Polly Stakes in June.
That was a mammouth performance and a clear career best. With her attitude and class, she could be right in the thick of things here.
Top shout.
Oaks winner who disappointed in the Irish Derby last time out. She had had a busy run up until the Irish Derby, and she was taking on the colts for the first time so you can afford to give her a pass.
Her Oaks form would put her right in the picture here, but fundamentally she ran so poorly last time out, that it’s hard to have concrete confidence in her today.
She looks the type to bounce back though. Fascinating runner.
Took her form to a whole new level when winning the Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot in gutsy fashion. She then bettered that performance when backing up in the Irish Oaks.
She looked much more professional that day and she was well on top at the finish. She’s clearly still improving and she has to rate as one of the main players here.

Won her last two, most recently she took a French Group 2 over today’s trip. That was her first try at the mile and a half and she proved that it’s well within her reach.
She travelled well and asserted close home that day, she didn’t have to work too hard to win.
She will have to improve again but she’s still going the right way and Andre Fabre clearly backs her, sending her over from France for a race this hot surely pays testament to their opinion of her.
Poptronic was second last time out here over a mile and a quarter behind Achelois, in a listed race in July. Ordinarily, that form will be nowhere near good enough to trouble some of these, but she is an unexposed, well bred filly who will surely appreciate the extra distance today.
She is up against it on figures but she has the most untapped potential.
