(4)

Alpinara

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: D Egan| T: Sir Mark Prescott

Foaled Feb 11. 2,500,000 gns yearling. Frankel filly. Sister to high-class winner up to 1½m Alpinista (2-y-o 7f winner), successful in Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, and half-sister to useful 1¼m-1½m winner Alpenblume. Commands respect on debut.

(1)

Annastarzy³⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon

Bit of promise first time up but failed to improve when fourth of 8 in novice at Newmarket (8f, good to firm) last month. However, her latest effort came only 8 days on from debut, so she remains with potential given more time ahead of this race.

Form: 64

(9)

Corallience

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Ray Dawson| T: D Menuisier

Foaled February 21. €125,000 yearling, No Nay Never filly. Dam, 1½m winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 1¼m (stayed 1½m) Hazapour out of smart 1¼m-1½m winner Hazarafa. May just be better for this first experience.

(6)

Earth Shot

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: W Buick| T: W J Haggas

Foaled April 3. 90,000 gns yearling, Time Test filly. Closely related to smart 1¼m winner Devil's Advocate and half-sister to 7.7f-1¼m winner Inquiring Minds. Dam winner up to 1¾m (2-y-o 1m winner). Helps to give her trainer a strong hand in the race.

(3)

My Ophelia

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas

Foaled May 4. 1,700,000 gns yearling, Wootton Bassett filly. Closely related to high-class 1m-1¼m winner My Prospero and half-sister to 3 winners, including very smart 1m-9f winner My Oberon. Noteworthy newcomer for leading yard.

(2)

Peerless Spirit

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Colin Keane| T: R M Beckett

Foaled March 18. Dubawi filly. Sister to useful 1¼m winner Cherry and half-sister to 1¼m winner Marlowe. Dam, 9f/1¼m winner, closely related to smart winner up to 1½m Midterm out of high-class winner up to 1½m Midday. Interesting for yard who can ready a newcomer.

(5)

Queen's Companion²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R M Beckett

Bred to be smart and shaped well amidst greenness when fourth of 9 in maiden at Salisbury (7f, good to soft) on debut 23 days ago. Step up in trip likely to suit and she could be in the mix with first run behind her.

Form: 4

(8)

Ruby Wedding¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: P J McDonald| T: A M Balding

Half-sister to several winners and showed ability in an interesting-looking novice when third of 5 at Yarmouth (8f, good to firm) on debut 19 days ago, taking third final 1f. Merits consideration with improvement to come from her first outing.

Form: 3

(7)

Sea A Lucky Star

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: G & J Moore

Foaled Feb 24. 20,000 gns foal, 50,000 gns yearling, resold 25,000 gns yearling, €48,000 2-y-o. Sea The Stars filly. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart winner up to 1½m Teona out of smart winner up to 1½m (2-y-o 8.6f winner) Ambivalent. Tough ask on debut.

Forecasts

Alpinara (11/4), My Ophelia (3/1), Earth Shot (5/1), Peerless Spirit (11/2), Annastarzy (10/1), Queen's Companion (10/1), Ruby Wedding (10/1), Corallience (16/1), Sea A Lucky Star (50/1)

This could go to a newcomer, with preference for MY OPHELIA who makes plenty of appeal on paper from a family that her trainer knows well. She is taken to get the better of fellow seven-figure purchase Alpinara, sister to the Arc-winning Alpinista, while Ruby Wedding is the pick of those with previous experience.
