Funny Story⁴⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Hector Crouch| T: R M Beckett| OR: 102| D

17/2

Useful filly who has been runner-up at listed level on her last couple of starts, including to Unequal Love on penultimate one at Newmarket. Could be on the premises.

Form: 3271-22

(3)

Marine Wave²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Billy Garritty| T: R A Fahey| OR: 97| D

20/1

Useful filly. 8/1, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Ripon (6f, good) 22 days ago, comfortably. Progressing well recently but this is a big step up in grade.

Form: 33-8031

(4)

Pink Crystal³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: D Allan| T: W J Haggas| OR: 102| D

14/1

Useful filly who gained a deserved breakthrough in listed company at Ayr in September. Might strip fitter for her return at Haydock and has the form to get involved.

Form: 34136-4

(5)

Silent Words^b1⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan| OR: 89

100/1

Fairly useful filly. 8¼ lengths seventh of 8 to Jabaara in listed race (50/1) at Musselburgh (7.1f, good) 41 days ago. Back down in trip and blinkers on 1st time.

Form: 4763-67

Unequal Love²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 107| D

11/4

Returned better than ever with 6f listed win at Newmarket and, after shaping well in Ireland, resumed progress with an excellent display to land the Wokingham at Royal Ascot last month. Sets the standard with that effort and should take all the beating.

Form: 014-151

Great Generation⁶²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Marco Ghiani| T: M Botti| OR: 105| D

5/1

Won her first 2 starts last summer and still on the up this year, landing the Chartwell Stakes with a bit to spare at Lingfield a couple of months ago. Not seen since but definite player if she's ready to go after a break.

Form: 112-41

Pretty Crystal⁶⁸

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

12/1

Came up short in 4 attempts at pattern company at 2 but improved when edging out the reopposing Dance Sequence in the Nell Gwyn at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) on reappearance. Down the field in the 1000 Guineas since and this is quite a big ask.

Form: 5244-10

Adaay In Devon²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: S De Sousa| T: B R Millman| OR: 102| D

7/2

Thriving filly who upped her game again to take out a listed contest at Sandown with nothing to spare. Steps up in grade again but she's a tough sort who should take it in her stride.

Form: 411231

(6)

Flora Of Bermuda²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: P J McDonald| T: A M Balding| OR: 100

14/1

Useful filly. Good head second of 7 to Adaay In Devon in listed race (5/1) at Sandown (5f, good to soft) 27 days ago, just failing. Can't be ruled out.

Form: 1824-92

Pandora's Gift²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Jason Hart| T: S C Williams| OR: 101| D

28/1

Winner of 4 of her 5 starts on the AW, impressing again upped to listed company at Chelmsford (6f) last time. Disappointed in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot but this is a bit easier.

Form: 21-1110

(8)

Prime Art²⁹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: K Stott| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| OR: 103| D

25/1

Lightly raced filly who showed big improvement when last seen for Johnny Murtagh 9 months ago, winning the Firth of Clyde at Ayr in good style. This is clearly tougher but she can do better again.

Form: 4411-

Raqiya⁴⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Jim Crowley| T: Owen Burrows| OR: 101| D

8/1

Career best when winning 6-runner listed race at Salisbury (6f, good, 5/1) 48 days ago by neck from Funny Story. Bred to do better still and is worth considering for all that this is a much stronger event than last time.

Form: 4115-1

Forecasts

Unequal Love (11/4), Adaay In Devon (7/2), Great Generation (5/1), Raqiya (8/1), Funny Story (17/2), Pretty Crystal (12/1), Flora Of Bermuda (14/1), Pink Crystal (14/1), Marine Wave (20/1), Prime Art (25/1), Pandora's Gift (28/1), Silent Words (100/1)

UNEQUAL LOVE's Wokingham success off a mark of 102 was a big performance and it's the clear standout piece of form in this event, so she gets the vote over Great Generation, who boasts a progressive profile. The thriving Adaay In Devon can't be ignored.
