Selected odds by:
Been on an upward curve and best effort to date when winning a similar event to this at Pontefract two starts back. Not quite so good when upped to Group 3 company last time but a player now returned to this grade.
Won three times last season but her form hasn't really peaked so far this year. Well held in a couple of similar events to this of late and likely to find a few of these too sharp once more.
Consistent mare who saves her best efforts for the AW now. Had no chance really at Ascot last time after making a mess of the start. Likes to front run and sure to give it a bold sighting from the front here. Major player.
Won a handicap off a mark of 87 two starts back and then found life tough in a Group 3 last time finishing last of four. Well held in a couple of these events already this season and needs to raise her game to be involved.
Really consistent filly that always tends to run her race. Slightly below par at Pontefract last time but easily can be forgiven that and should be right in the thick of things once again here.
Has made the frame in in her last two efforts in this grade albeit well held in third. Needs to step up on those performances again for win purposes but had place claims once more if at her best.
Taken her from to a new level the last twice winning handicaps off 79 and 87. Rise to this level asks another question now but she is firmly on the upgrade and impossible to dismiss.
Won a novice event on debut and then went close in a Fillies Listed contest at Sandown on her second start. Not so good in a couple of Group 2 contests before a weak effort at Musselburgh last time. Much more needed.
Won first two starts which were nine months apart, following up a 7f AW Kempton win with a 1m Chelmsford AW success. Held behind Akvavera at Sandown before another good win at Ascot last time. Firmly on the upgrade but plenty more required.
Won three of her first four starts and has continued that fine form with a couple of close seconds in bug-field handicaps the last twice. That form entitles her to major respect here and expected to play a major role once more
Stepped up considerably on her debut effort when a 7L winner of a novice event at Haydock in July. Went close in a Listed contest at Haydock before being well held in a Group 3 last time. Needs to put up a career best here.
Has twice made the frame at this level this summer. Not beaten all that far in a Group 3 at Newmarket(1m4f) last time and now takes a big step back in trip. Has a squeak at her best.
Forecasts
Move Swiftly (4/5), Lush Life (6/1), Akvavera (8/1), Rasima (14/1), Lucymai (14/1), Shenanigans (16/1), Summer Icon (20/1), New Day Dawn (25/1), Castle Hill Cassie (33/1), Peak Princess (33/1), Inshiraah (33/1), Capomento (40/1)
It is hard to get away from the claims of the improving three-year-olds and MOVE SWIFTLY is right at the top of the list. She has gone close in a couple of big-field handicaps the last twice and should be up to winning at this level. Akvavera is another on a large upward curve having won a couple of handicaps in decisive fashion the last twice and is very much feared. There is a very good chance there is more to come from Lush Life and she completes the shortlist.
- Move Swiftly
- Akvavera
