Goldana

Made a winning debut in Ireland, landing a 1400m G3 on heavy ground in April. Has not progressed since, and unless the ground turns soft, it is hard to recommend her chances. Races prominently.

2

Heredia

Really thriving this season and has shown her appreciation of a return to this trip, with a Listed win at Haydock and a G3 victory at Sandown. Wants a fast pace to aim at in this first G1 venture.

Inspiral

Struggled on soft ground two starts back but back at her brilliant best just 11 days later when showing terrific acceleration to win a G1 at Deauville – her seventh win from 11 starts. Big chance.

4

Mqse De Sevigne

Consistent and has developed from a very good filly into a dual G1 winning filly, delivered from the back with perfectly-timed challenges twice for narrow victories at Deauville in July and August. Faster ground expected than she has encountered so far.

5

Random Harvest

Twice a G3 winner and came close to landing a shock G2 success at Royal Ascot. Didn’t enjoy soft ground at Goodwood last time, and more suitable conditions expected here. Still, this looks tough.

6

Roman Mist

Gained the seventh win of her career when returning to her best to win a 1400m G3 at Dresden in September. More exposed than all – this is her 31st career run – and not an obvious G1 winner.

7

Coppice

Gained her fourth win – from seven starts – with a Listed success over this course and distance last month, relaxed at the back before finishing fast. Likes quick ground and probably still improving.

8

Meditate

Career highlight was her fast-finishing firm ground victory in a 1600m G1 at Keeneland last November. No wins since but particular encouragement in first-time blinkers at Leopardstown last month.
