Smart filly. Latest win at the Curragh in July. Respectable 1¼ lengths third of 16 to Makarova in Prix de l'Abbaye de Longchamp at Longchamp (5f, soft, 57/10) 27 days ago, nearest finish. Has had a fantastic year and shouldn't be far away.

Forecasts

Cogburn (7/5), Bradsell (7/2), Motorious (8/1), Ag Bullet (10/1), Star Of Mystery (10/1), Big Evs (12/1), Believing (12/1), Isivunguvungu (20/1), Big Invasion (20/1), Arzak (30/1), Starlust (30/1), Charcoal (30/1), Nothing Better (30/1), Frost At Dawn (30/1), Howard Wolowitz (30/1)

Britain's top sprinter BRADSELL lost little in defeat in the Prix de l'Abbaye and is hard to get away from. Big Evs looks set for another big run a year on from his Juvenile Turf Sprint success at Santa Anita. Cogburn is the pick of the US challenge.
