        Verdict

        AUDARYA was beaten only a length by Tarnawa in last year’s renewal with Grand Glory behind. The latter came out best at Deauville in August but James Fanshawe’s mare can turn the tables on this softer ground and confirm running with Thundering Nights and Ambition in the process. Joan Of Arc is looking to put a poor effort in a trial race here behind her having beaten Burgarita and subsequent winner Sibila Spain when landing the French Oaks at Chantilly in June while Palmas won the German Oaks at Dusseldorf, though her form is harder to assess. The latter comment also applies to Japanese filly Ikat but Penja finished ahead of Rougir and Zeyaadah when going close in a Group 2 at Deauville last time, though the latter ran much better when runner-up in the Nassau at Goodwood before that.
