Comment: 375,000gns yearling; siblings include dual Newmarket Group 1 scorer Ten Sovereigns; comfortably justified favouritism in 2yo novice event at Salisbury (7f, heavy) that her trainer won in 2022 with a filly who subsequently finished second twice at Group 1 level; interesting prospect.

25/1

Comment: Very useful filly whose solid 2yo campaign featured Group wins over 6f/7f in Britain/France and a good second to Lake Victoria in Irish Group 1; form dipped sharply in the Fred Darling on reappearance, which isn't ideal going into this Classic.

40/1

Comment: Proved very consistent (22133) last season and her Sandown maiden win is flanked by good efforts in races won by Desert Flower, including the May Hill; however, she looks unlikely to reverse the placings unless she has wintered particularly well.

Comment: Truncated 2yo campaign ended in June; ran well for third in the Nell Gwyn here (7f, good to soft) on reappearance, taking form figures to 6213 and continuing her progress on RPRs; however, this Classic assignment demands another significant step forward.

Comment: Ran a strange race over C&D on her debut 19 days ago (good to soft), showing bright speed early but losing her position 2f out and then running very green; kept on again late and she could prove a different proposition with the run behind her.

Comment: January foal; 65,000euros foal, 140,000euros yearling; first foal of a sprint winner in Italy (including 2yo), herself a half-sister to some useful sprinters; quite a precocious pedigree and market confidence usually a good sign for newcomers from this yard.

Comment: Half-brother to the stable's classy Group 3 winner Soprano; promising start to his career when chasing home a stablemate of Rising Power over C&D 17 days ago, a race where his main rival had the advantage of the rail and also looked more professional; open to improvement and bids to emulate the same owner's The Actor who won this race last year having finished second at the Craven meeting.

Comment: February foal; 600,000euros yearling; closely related to US 8.5f winner Surround, half-brother to three winners including Roulston Scar (5f-6f; RPR 111) and Special Purpose (5f 2yo; 100); dam Graded stakes-placed 8.4f 2yo winner (90); stable have run three 2yos this season, two of them successful and the other was placed; of obvious interest.

Comment: February foal; £135,000 yearling; first foal of a maiden, herself a half-sister to 1m Group 2 winner Space Traveller; stable up and running with 2yos but their winner of the corresponding race 12 months ago had the benefit of experience.

Alvin

Jockey: Hollie Doyle Trainer: Des Donovan Age/Wt: 2/9-11 F: 0241

14/1

Comment: He is having his fifth start of the season already, improving at the fourth attempt when making all at Yarmouth 12 days ago (5f, good to firm); his experience, early pace and toughness will serve him well but it would be a surprise if he could concede weight to some interesting opposition.

11/8

Comment: Improved run by run as a 2yo, just failing against a promising sort at Newcastle in December (albeit had the benefit of experience) before winning at Wolverhampton 128 days ago (8.6f); stepping up in trip should prompt improvement and this isn't a strong race for the grade; leading claims.

Comment: Improved with each of his first three 2yo runs, getting off the mark at Thirsk in September (7f, good to soft); looked to find 1m an inadequate test here on his reappearance 17 days ago (first run since a gelding operation) and can do better over today's longer trip.
