Shock winner of a Group 2 at York last time out, her second success at that level, but a couple of those rivals probably not at their best that day. Yard in excellent form and the mare is proven in this ground so certainly can't be ruled out and could run a big race at likely bigger odds.
Running well in Group 1 races on these shores last season before running out a superb winner of the Breeders' Cup Fillies and Mares race at the end of last season, benefiting from a fine Dettori ride. Well beaten at York on return at York behind Blond Me but needs a strong pace to aim at and didn't have it that day. Better effort at Royal Ascot finishing 2L behind Highland Reel and likely to go well again here back against her own sex if the ground doesn't inconvenience her.
Declared twice this year without running. Clearly a delicate type but has won in soft ground and ran well in Group 1 company when last seen despite failing to justify favouritism. Absence to overcome.
Got the better of Winter in Group 3 company at the start of the season at Leopardstown but largely been used as a pacemaker for her stablemate in recent times and set to fill a similar role here.
Surprise 20/1 Group 1 winner at Deuville on seasonal return this year and paid the price for tracking too strong a pace in the Oaks. Return to softer conditions ought to suit according to connections and drop back in trip should be right up her street. Solid each-way chance if returning to form.
Arrives here in search of her fourth Group 1 win on the spin after wins in both Guineas either side of the Irish Sea and landed the Coronation Stakes with the minimum of fuss last time out. Shapes like she will relish this step up in trip and brings the best form into the race. Concern would be she hasn't seen ground this soft.

Forecasts
Winter (10/11), So Mi Dar (4/1), Nezwaah (5/1), Sobetsu (6/1), Shutter Speed (7/1), Queen's Trust (8/1), Hydrangea (10/1), Blond Me (16/1), Wuheida (16/1)
Provided WINTER handles conditions, she will be very difficult to beat in her bid for her fourth consecutive Group 1. Shutted Speed is proven in the ground and ran well in a Group 1 last time out while Sobetsu has been given time to recover from her Oaks effort and is another who will appreciate the rain that has arrived.
