Zellie²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A Fabre| OR: 102

4/1

Three time winner including in listed company at Deauville over 7f in July. Has since found one too good in Group 3 company both at Deauville and over C&D. Likely to be vulnerable once again.

Form: 11122

Times Square⁴³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: C Demuro| T: C Ferland| OR: 93

40/1

Won a Deauville maiden on heavy ground in July on debut. Has since tasted defeat both in conditions and listed company. Looks to be flying high here but should handle the likely underfoot conditions.

Form: 123

Fleur D'iris²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: M Barzalona| T: A Fabre| OR: 107| CD

15/8

Won Group 3 Prix d'Aumale over C&D last month, eased up late having made all. That was a taking performance in what is a trial for this race. May improve again, and makes plenty of appeal.

Form: 4121

Agartha²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: D P McDonogh| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 109

13/2

Useful filly who won the Debutante Stakes (7f) at the Curragh in August. Since finished a very creditable second in the Moyglare Stakes (7f) at the Curragh. Likely to stay 1m and has to be respected.

Form: 322112

Acer Alley²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: O Peslier| T: F Graffard| OR: 102| C

13/2

Progressive filly who won Prix La Rochette over 7f at this venue last month. Form of the race has been franked since. Proven on heavy ground and race will be run to suit, so likely to run a big race.

Form: 411

Oscula^h1⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: R L Moore| T: G Boughey| OR: 104

15/2

Consistent all summer, highlight being winning Prix Six Perfections (7f) at Deauville in August. Found a couple too good at Group 2 level since and vulnerable at this level in first-time hood.

Form: 134133

(8)

Natasha²³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: L Dettori| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 94| D

6/1

Useful filly who has taken two novice events at Kempton and Sandown in taking fashion. Yard isn't afraid of rolling the dice at this level so she has to be respected but heavy ground is a concern.

Form: 211

Who Knows^t1⁴⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: T Bachelot| T: S Wattel| OR: 101

22/1

Filly on an upward curve, won Group 3 Prix Francois Boutin (7f) at Deauville in August. This requires another significant step forward though and she may find a couple too good.

Form: 4141

Forecasts

Raclette (1/2), Fleur D'iris (15/8), Zellie (4/1), Natasha (6/1), Agartha (13/2), Acer Alley (13/2), Oscula (15/2), Who Knows (22/1), Times Square (40/1)

ACER ALLEY is proven on the likely ground and she looked an exciting prospect when winning over 7f here last month. The form of that race has been franked since and she should go close. Andre Fabre saddles three and Fleur d'Iris won well when making all in the trial for this, so she has to be taken seriously. Stablemate Raclette created a big impression last time but heavy ground would be a worry.
