        In depth

        Formwatch

        Bahamian Rhapsody (IRE) Second in a Haydock maiden over 1m6f; difficult to fancy here.

        Baranova (IRE) Seventh in the Lupe Stakes at Goodwood; improvement needed.

        Gay Heroine Stayed on well in the Oaks; clear chance if able to improve on this run.

        Head In The Clouds (IRE) Fourth in the Pretty Polly Stakes; tends to pull hard and will need to settle.

        Jalousie (IRE) Successful last time on the all-weather; this bunch are a much tougher prospect.

        Lime Gardens Second at Cork over 1m2f in a listed contest; appears to go on any ground.

        Lumiere d'Espoir (FR) Twice successful in handicap company but no show against Silver Grey Lady at Newbury.

        Marani Winner of a Goodwood maiden; highly thought of and scope for improvement.

        Nafisah (IRE) Cosy winner at Newbury last time over 1m2f; progressive sort.

        Najah (IRE) No show in the Oaks after some promise at Leopardstown last year.

        Rockerlong Beat Gay Heroine a neck in Cheshire Oaks; progressive sort but that track is completely different to here.

        Sahara Slew (USA) Winner of a Leopardstown maiden over 1m4f; yet to face ground this fast.

        Snowflake (IRE) Second in a Cork maiden (Sahara Slew third); step up in trip will probably suit.

        Sunstone Fifth in the Oaks (Gay Heroine behind) at big odds; appears to handle fast ground.
