Bronze Maquette has made giant strides in her last three starts and ran away with the Listed St Hugh's Stakes over 5f at Newbury last time when Dangerous Moonlite was well behind. But this is an even hotter contest with Pastoral Girl suggesting her turn wasn't far away when second in a Group 2 at Ascot in July. Zifena was third in the Group 3 Prestige Stakes at Goodwood last time, ahead of Efflorescence, and New Providence only found one too good in a valuable sales race at York. Royal Razalma and Vesnina are progressive fillies but Richard Hughes prefers MARSH HAWK to the latter. She made Fadhayyil, who runs in the previous race, look very one-paced on her debut at Newmarket and could be anything.
