Love Interest²⁰²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Rob Hornby| T: D O'Meara| OR: 92| D

100/1

Useful filly. 12 lengths last of 11 to Times Square in listed race at Longchamp (7f, heavy, 39/1). Off 6 months. Makes polytrack debut. Very hard to make a case for in this company.

Nizaaka⁷⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Marco Ghiani| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| OR: 93| D

33/1

Useful mare who gained three wins from 8 runs last year. 20 lengths thirteenth of 15 to Coachello in listed race at this course (6f, soft, 40/1) 28 days ago though so needs to leave that behind.

Form: 450-504

Queen Aminatu¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: W Buick| T: W J Haggas| OR: 107| BF| CD

7/2

Smart filly who completed a hat-trick with 7f Newcastle success in April. Only 9½ lengths seventh of 8 to Honey Girl in Athasi Stakes (5/2) at the Curragh (7f, soft) 12 days ago. This C&D winner can bounce back.

Form: 9211-17

Sacred^t²¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: R L Moore| T: W J Haggas| OR: 113| BF| D

13/8

Smart mare. Landed 7f Newbury listed event in September before signing off with good second of 8 to Pogo in Challenge Stakes at Newmarket (7f, good), caught further back than ideal. Goes very well fresh so she's the one to beat on her seasonal return.

Form: 1/55612-

Sandrine²²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR: 110| D

9/4

Smart filly who bagged 7f Lennox Stakes at Goodwood last July. Rare poor run when ninth of 10 to Kinross in Prix de la Foret at Longchamp (7f, soft, 10/1) final start. Not taken lightly on return with her yard among the winners.

Form: 573139-

White Moonlight⁷⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: R Kingscote| T: S bin Suroor| OR: 108| D

8/1

Useful mare. In good form in Meydan this winter until only seventh of 10 to Mostahdaf in Group 3 Neom Turf Cup at King Abdulaziz (10.4f, good to firm) 77 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Not discounted.

Form: 305-227

(8)

Candle Of Hope⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: George Rooke| T: R Hughes| OR: 91| D

66/1

Fairly useful filly. Creditable fourth of 6 to Roman Mist in listed race (18/1) at Goodwood (8f, heavy) 7 days ago. May do better still but this is no easy ask.

Form: 1350-64

(7)

Secret Angel²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: S H James| T: K R Burke| OR: 103

16/1

Useful filly. 40/1, good 3¼ lengths third of 15 to Mammas Girl in Nell Gwyn Stakes at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Much respected on her polytrack debut.

Form: 19151-3

Forecasts

Sacred (13/8), Sandrine (9/4), Queen Aminatu (7/2), White Moonlight (8/1), Secret Angel (16/1), Nizaaka (33/1), Candle Of Hope (66/1), Love Interest (100/1)

SACRED holds the edge on form and goes very well fresh too so she looks the way to go in this Group 3. Andrew Balding has his string in excellent nick so his Lennox heroine Sandrine rates a big threat. Queen Aminatu, a stablemate of the selection, appeals as the pick of the remainder for place purposes ahead of White Moonlight.
