40/1

Stepped up on debut when winning 6-runner minor event at Chantilly but this is a big ask.

22/1

Has progressed with each of her 5 races and gained her second win in Group 3 over C&D last month. More needed again but not taken lightly.

8/1

Has won both her starts, valuable newcomers race at Deauville in August and 6-runner minor event at Chantilly (evens, comfortably by 2 lengths, making all) in September. Bit to find but is a useful performer in the making.

Les Pavots⁴³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: M Barzalona| T: F Graffard| OR: 107

11/2

Looked to have had her limitations exposed when third in the Prix du Bois but the step up to 7f has brought improvement, winning listed event at Vichy and Group 2 at Deauville last 2 starts. Will stay 1m and needs considering.

Ribaltagaia²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: C Soumillon| T: G Bietolini

12/1

225,000 2-y-o by Blameo. Tongue tied, 68/10, had her rivals strung out in behind when winning 9-runner minor event at Lyon Parilly by 3½ lengths, readily drawing clear. Will improve.

Most progressive, winning last 3 starts, including Prestige Stakes at Goodwood and May Hill at Doncaster by 3 lengths. More to come and leading contender.

Picked up an ordinary maiden at Sandown at the third attempt last month and big surprise if she were good enough.

Opera Singer³⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 107| D

2/1

Showed much improved form to get back to winning ways in Group 3 at the Curragh by a wide margin 5 weeks ago. Player for trainer who has won this 4 times.

Form: 8121

Julica³⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: James Doyle| T: C Ferland| D

12/1

Won minor events at La Teste in August and September, latter very impressively by 4½ lengths, taking strong hold and drawing clear without coming off bridle. Will go on to better things.

Form: 11

Forecasts

Opera Singer (2/1), Darnation (2/1), Les Pavots (11/2), Rose Bloom (8/1), Ribaltagaia (12/1), Julica (12/1), Freville (22/1), Zandy (40/1), Extraordinaire (66/1), Voodoo Magic (80/1)

DARNATION sets a solid standard after her 3-length win in the May Hill at Doncaster so looks the way to go. Opera Singer must be respected on the back of her wide-margin win in a Group 3 at the Curragh, while Les Pavots and Julica make the most appeal from the home team.
