Beenham¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: R Kingscote| T: B R Millman| OR: 82| CD

4/1

Havana Grey filly who confirmed debut promise when making all in C&D novice. Disappointed in listed company at York but resumed progress when sixth of 20 in Weatherbys Super Sprint at Newbury, second home in her group (behind the winner). Not taken lightly.

9/1

Gradually progressive and off the mark in straightforward fashion at Lingfield. Excellent second of 20 in Weatherbys Super Sprint at Newbury since, showing plenty of dash. Must be respected.

Flora Of Bermuda⁴²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR: 91

5/1

Improved on debut when 1¼ lengths second in class 2 event at Beverley, her rider opting to weave way through the pack while the winner made her ground down the outside. First home on the far side when sixth of 26 in Queen Mary at Royal Ascot since and obvious claims down in class.

Form: 426

Indispensable⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 92| D

15/2

Put experience to good use when winning at Ripon in June. Pulled too hard in listed race at Newmarket but firmly back on track when close third in similar event at Naas last week, settling much better under a change of tactics (held up). Merits consideration.

Juniper Berries¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 93| D

11/2

Impressive when making a winning start at Bath and posted a couple of positive efforts since, notably when fourth in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot. Bit disappointing in Weatherbys Super Sprint at Newbury since but big player if back to her best.

Looby³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Jim Crowley| T: C Hills

33/1

Shaped quite a lot better than the bare result when fifth of 11 in novice at Windsor (6f, good to soft) on debut but went backwards at Newmarket since. Easy to look elsewhere.

Form: 55

Make It Easy²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: R P Whelan| T: J Channon| OR: 81| D

10/1

Progressing well, off the mark at the third attempt in Catterick maiden 3 weeks ago, pulling clear of a subsequent winner. This much harder but she has more potential than most.

Form: 521

Princess Chizara⁴²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Darragh Keenan| T: C Allen| OR: 81| D

16/1

Defied big odds to win 4-runner maiden at Brighton (5.3f, firm) on debut, blitzing her rivals. Struggled in Queen Mary at Royal Ascot since but should make more of an impact here.

Form: 10

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: K Stott| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 80| D

28/1

Promising first effort when runner-up in a Ascot maiden and didn't need to improve when going one better at Lingfield. However, found it tough upped in class since and she looks to be up against it once more.

Tropical Island¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| D

9/2

£19,000 yearling, £135,000 2-y-o, Inns of Court filly. Half-sister to 1¼m winner Jimmy Mark. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Justified market confidence in Ripon maiden 11 days ago, doing well to overcome both greenness and a troubled passage. Hard to know what that form is worth but she's sure to progress.

Ziggy's Dream²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 84| D

14/1

Knew her job when justifying support at Doncaster in April. Mixed record since but latest 3 lengths fifth of 8 in listed race at Tipperary was a decent effort. Bit to find here, however.

An excellent race of its type with 11 previous winners in the field. FLORA OF BERMUDA emerged with plenty of credit to finish first home on the far side when sixth of 26 in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot so earns the vote. Dapperling had a few of these in behind when an excellent second in the Weatherbys Super Sprint at Newbury so must be respected, while Make It Easy and Tropical Island both have potential for better.
