Useful filly. Creditable second to Homeless Songs and History in a couple of Guineas Trials at Leopardstown. More needed to go one better here.

2,500 gns foal, £42,000 yearling, Starspangledbanner filly. 50/1, won 7-runner Fillies' Sprint Stakes at Naas (5.9f, heavy) on debut by length from Quick Suzy. Off 12 months. Significantly up in trip. Should improve but this is a tough ask.

Promising type. Career best when winning 11-runner 1000 Guineas Trial at Leopardstown (7f, good, 6/1) 50 days ago by length from Agartha, missing break but showing a deeply-impressive turn of foot. 1m unlikely to be an issue and can make presence felt.

Made a winning start in impressive fashion at Haydock in July and improved her form a chunk when following up in Group 3 at Goodwood. Excellent fourth in Fillies' Mile at Newmarket despite signs of greenness and probably best to forgive her run in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf.

Highly-regarded sister to 1000 Guineas winner Minding who was only just edged out by the more experienced Discoveries at the Curragh on sole 2-y-o start. Landed the odds with a good deal to spare in 17-runner maiden at Naas on return before excellent third in 1000 Guineas at Newmarket. Form pick.

HOMELESS SONGS displayed a deeply-impressive turn of foot when taking the 1000 Guineas Trial at Leopardstown and surely has more to offer over this extra furlong. Tuesday was an excellent third in the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket but shaped more like a middle-distance filly that day and may prove vulnerable to the finishing kick of Dermot Weld's filly. Purplepay would have gone close with a better run in the Criterium and is an interesting contender starting out for the red-hot William Haggas.
