Magical Sunset²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: D Egan| T: A Murray| OR: 102

50/1

Won the Group 3 Oak Tree at Goodwood (7f, heavy) last summer for Richard Hannon but her form is essentially no better than useful and she's held by Running Lion on latest Royal Ascot form.

Form: 00-5404

Rogue Millennium²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: W Buick| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 108| BF| D

9/1

Smart mare who won the Duke of Cambridge at 2023 Royal Ascot but was below par when 4 lengths fifth to Running Lion in this year's renewal of that race. Still early days for this yard but will need to step up on her 2 runs this season to trouble Porta Fortuna.

Form: 5205-35

Running Lion²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Oisin Murphy| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 110| BF| D

4/1

Made the breakthrough at Group level with a comfortable success in the Duke of Cambridge at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) 23 days ago, looking suited by a switch to front-running tactics. Her stable is bidding to win this for the third time in 5 years.

Form: 238-281

Sirona³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Rossa Ryan| T: D Menuisier| OR: 104

22/1

Useful 7f scorer for Charlie Johnston in 2023 and has returned with a pair of good placed efforts over 7f for her new yard. Looks to be biting off more than she can chew in this company, though.

Form: 8518-32

(7)

A Lilac Rolla⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: W J Lee| T: P Twomey| OR: 108

9/2

Lost her unbeaten record but improved again when 2¾ lengths second of 13 to Fallen Angel in Irish 1000 Guineas at the Curragh (1m, soft) in May. Likely capable of better again.

Form: 11-12

(6)

Jabaara¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: James Doyle| T: R Varian| OR: 105

18/1

Useful filly who notched 7f listed wins at Musselburgh and Carlisle last month but a jolt of improvement will be needed if she's to play a prominent role in this higher grade.

Form: 426-311

(4)

Porta Fortuna²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: R L Moore| T: Donnacha O'Brien| OR: 116| D

10/11

Won the Group 1 Cheveley Park at 2 and has taken her form up another notch this year, going close in the 1000 Guineas before taking the Coronation at Royal Ascot. The one to beat.

Form: 2312-21

Forecasts

Porta Fortuna (10/11), Running Lion (4/1), A Lilac Rolla (9/2), Rogue Millennium (9/1), Jabaara (18/1), Sirona (22/1), Magical Sunset (50/1)

PORTA FORTUNA impressed with the way she picked off one who got first run on her at Royal Ascot and can become the first since Alpha Centauri in 2018 to complete the Coronation/Falmouth double. Fellow Irish-trained 3-y-o filly A Lilac Rolla has improved with each start and could be the one to give her most to do if that trend continues.
