Cinderella's Dream⁶⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: M Barzalona| T: C Appleby| OR: 99| D

12/1

Stretched her unbeaten 4 in 1m Meydan listed event in March, forging clear despite a slipped saddle meaning her jockey was without irons from halfway. More to come but Buick sides with Dance Sequence this time.

Form: 11-11

Dance Sequence¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby| OR: 106| BF| C

13/2

Won a July Course maiden on debut and followed up in the Group 3 Oh So Sharp over 7f here in October. Beaten a neck by Pretty Crystal in Nell Gwyn here (7f again) on reappearance but has good prospects of turning those places around now stepping up to 1m.

Form: 11-2

Darnation²¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 110| D

25/1

Won Prestige at Goodwood (7f, heavy) and May Hill at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) at the end of last summer. Respectable 6¾ lengths fifth of 10 to Opera Singer in Prix Marcel Boussac at Longchamp (1m, good to firm) final start. One of 2 runners for the stable. Any easing of the ground in her favour.

Form: 31115-

Elmalka¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: S De Sousa| T: R Varian| OR: 100

28/1

AW winner on debut in November and left that form behind when ½-length third of 6 to Folgaria (Regal Jubilee neck ahead in second) in Fred Darling at Newbury (7f, good) 15 days ago, nearest finish. Should improve again now stepping up to 1m.

Form: 1-3

(5)

Fallen Angel²³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: D Tudhope| T: K R Burke| OR: 116

10/3

Too Darn Hot filly who made won the Sweet Solera over on the July Course before ending her 2-y-o campaign with victory in the Group 1 Moyglare at the Curragh, impressing with how she quickened again when challenged. Likely even better to come at 1m. Big player.

Form: 1211-

Porta Fortuna¹⁸⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: Donnacha O'Brien| OR: 110| C

11/1

Caravaggio filly who numbered the Albany at Royal Ascot and Cheveley Park here (both 6f, good to firm) among her 4 wins at 2. Proved her stamina for further when good second Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf at Santa Anita (1m, firm) final start.

Form: 112312-

Pretty Crystal¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 107| C

33/1

Came up short in 4 attempts at pattern company at 2 but improved when edging out the reopposing Dance Sequence in the Nell Gwyn here (7f, good to firm) on reappearance 18 days ago. Quite a bit more will be needed to follow up here, though.

Form: 15244-1

Ramatuelle²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Aurelien Lemaitre| T: C H Head| OR: 106| BF

9/2

Won Group 2/3s over 6f at Chantilly last summer and narrowly denied in the Prix Morny at Deauville final 2-y-o start. Shaped well when ½-length second of 7 to Romantic Style in Prix Imprudence at Deauville (7f, heavy) on reappearance 26 days ago. Leading form claims now stepping up to 1m.

Form: 12112-2

(8)

Regal Jubilee¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: K Shoemark| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 101| CD

28/1

C&D listed winner (heavy) on her final 2-y-o start and bettered that form when neck second to Folgaria (Elmalka close up in third) in Fred Darling at Newbury (7f, good) on reappearance 15 days ago. Will benefit from the return to 1m.

Form: 911-2

(14)

Rolica¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Hollie Doyle| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| BF| C

50/1

320,000 gns purchase who is bred to be useful and built on her 1m debut promise last autumn when winning a 7f Craven meeting maiden 17 days ago. Will be suited by the return to 1m but this is a big jump in class.

Form: 3-1

(9)

Sacred Angel²¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Jason Hart| T: C Johnston| OR: 105

33/1

Raced only at 6f, winning Group 3 Princess Margaret at Ascot (good to soft) last summer. Ran with credit when reaching the frame in Prix Morny at Deauville (Ramatuelle 4½ lengths ahead in second) and Cheveley Park here (1½ lengths third of 11 to Porta Fortuna) on final 2 starts. Will stay further.

Form: 31143-

See The Fire²⁰⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR: 108

15/2

July Course debut winner last summer . Excellent effort on only second start when 3 lengths second to Darnation in May Hill at Doncaster and progressed again when 1¼ lengths third of 8 to Ylang Ylang in Fillies' Mile over C&D (good to soft) final start. Looks capable of better again.

Form: 123-

(7)

Star Music¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Jim Crowley| T: R Hughes| OR: 97

150/1

Useful effort when third to Dance Sequence in Oh So Sharp here (7f, good to soft) last autumn but she finished well behind a couple of these when a disappointing last of 6 in Fred Darling on Newbury reappearance.

Form: 3313-6

(10)

Star Style¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P J Dobbs| T: R Hannon

25/1

Well backed and looked something out of the ordinary when an impressive 5½-length winner on her Newbury debut. This a big ask only 16 days on but she's a very exciting prospect.

Form: 1

(4)

Tamfana²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: J P Spencer| T: D Menuisier| OR: 104| D

33/1

Won a 7f Chantilly Group 3 on heavy on her final 2-y-o start and bettered that form when length third of 7 to Romantic Style (Ramatuelle ½ length ahead in second) in Prix Imprudence at Deauville (7f, heavy) on reappearance 26 days ago. 1m should be within range.

Form: 311-3

(12)

Ylang Ylang²⁰⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 112| CD

5/1

Frankel filly who won 3 of her 5 starts as a juvenile, notably the Fillies' Mile over C&D (good to soft) in October, leading late on to beat Shuwari ½ length. Her outstanding trainer is seeking a sixth win in this since 2016. A must for the shortlist.

Form: 11931-

Forecasts

Fallen Angel (10/3), Ramatuelle (9/2), Ylang Ylang (5/1), Dance Sequence (13/2), See The Fire (15/2), Porta Fortuna (11/1), Cinderella's Dream (12/1), Darnation (25/1), Star Style (25/1), Elmalka (28/1), Regal Jubilee (28/1), Tamfana (33/1), Pretty Crystal (33/1), Sacred Angel (33/1), Rolica (50/1), Star Music (150/1)

It was hard not be taken by the way FALLEN ANGEL picked up again when joined in the closing stages of the Moyglare and, with 1m likely to suit on that evidence, she can improve again and provide the increasingly-powerful Karl Burke stable with a first British Classic success. French-raider Ramatuelle is second choice ahead of Dance Sequence, who should relish the step up to 1m, and Fillies' Mile winner Ylang Ylang.
