    Verdict

    Another smashing race on the card, with Tarot Card our nomination to get the better of some very interesting juvenile fillies. Running through the card. Gracefully is unbeaten in three races and comes here on the back of a win in the Group 3 Prestige Stakes. She's improving with each run. Bay Tree, a course and distance winner, got stuck in Longchamp's mud last time but had earlier looked impressive when scoring in Listed company over course and distance the time before. Cairns won well on her debut at Salisbury and should improve for the outing. The nicely-bred daughter of Cadeaux Genereux will need to though. Hathrah finished second to Kinnaird in the May Hill Stakes last time, which is solid fillies' juvenile form. Kelucia defied expectations when finishing a very good third in the Oh So Sharp Stakes over course and distance last time - Withorwithoutyou looks held on that form - and she too is entitled to go well, although a mile might suit her better than this trip. Irish raider Red Feather was beaten a length by Aidan O'Brien's Necklace in the Group 1 Moyglare Stud Stakes the time before last - she was unplaced at Longchamp last time - and comes strongly into the reckoning on that basis. After finishing behind Noyac on her debut, Snow Goose has won her last three races. The last of these came in a nursery and, while she is progressive, she needs to step up on the bare form of what has so far been achieved. Surf The Net went into many notebooks as a filly to look out for when winning on her Newmarket debut. Despite running green, she got the better of Sir Michael Stoute's Russian Dance in a slowly run affair. Given time since that run, she could well run a big race if even normal physical and mental development has taken place. Tarot Card did well to win on her debut at Goodwood and was far from disgraced when finishing fifth in the Group 1 Fillies Mile at Ascot last time. Whatever she does this year should be improved upon next time around but, with her stable in good form, she gets our vote.
