Divina Grace²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding| OR: 106

11/2

Proved better than ever when making a winning return for new yard (formerly with Rae Guest) in 7-runner John Porter Stakes at Newbury (12f, good) in April. Not in the same form in the Jockey Club Stakes at Newmarket since and bounce back called for.

Form: 5149-13

(2)

Allonsy^p²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: H Crouch| T: R M Beckett| OR: 95

18/1

Progressed with cheekpieces enlisted last term, winning 4 handicaps on the bounce at around 1½m prior to finishing a clear second in listed company at Ascot (14.2f, soft) on final outing. Had breathing operation prior to shaping as if retaining all ability on her reappearance at Goodwood.

Form: 11112-5

Crystal Flyer³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: P J McDonald| T: T Ward| OR: 95

18/1

Dual winner at Goodwood last term who progressed again when making a winning return in 8-runner handicap at Southwell (12.1f) last month. More needed again up in grade but she has a positive profile.

Form: 16212-1

Jane Temple²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 89

20/1

Confirmed debut promise when cosily off the mark in an 11-runner maiden at Southwell (12.1f) in November and defied a penalty in comfortable fashion at Kempton (12f) 6 months on. Will go on improving and looks ready for this higher grade.

Form: 21-1

Scenic²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Saffie Osborne| T: E Walker| OR: 105| BF| C

7/2

Raised her game during second half of last term, going close in listed company at Deauville before landing the Galtres Stakes in good style here (1½m). Not disgraced in a Group 2 at Doncaster on final outing last year and ran well when second in Goodwood listed event on return. Respected.

Form: 65314-2

(7)

Sueno²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: R L Moore| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 96

5/1

Late-maturing type who built on her debut promise when seeing off 3 rivals upped to 12.2f in a Wolverhampton maiden in November. Shaped better than the result up in grade in a Goodwood listed event 6 months later and surely has more progress in her.

Form: 31-4

Term Of Endearment^h⁵⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 107| CD

6/5

Gained her 2nd win at Group 3 level in this race last year before following up in the Lillie Langtry Stakes at Goodwood (14f). Left Henry De Bromhead for a lofty 1,300,000 gns after finishing mid-field in Longchamp Group 1 and probably needed the run at Meydan in April. Pick at the weights.

Form: 10/117-7

Forecasts

Term Of Endearment (6/5), Scenic (7/2), Sueno (5/1), Divina Grace (11/2), Allonsy (18/1), Crystal Flyer (18/1), Jane Temple (20/1)

TERM OF ENDEARMENT has been quite sparingly campaigned over the years but she's notably reliable at this sort of level and, with her reappearance/stable debut behind her, she's fancied to land this race for a second season running. Sueno was better than the result when behind the reopposing Scenic in a Goodwood listed event earlier in the month and could well reverse form with that rival, especially with further improvement forthcoming.
