Lilac |
Has not tasted any success since January 2022. Fourth in the G1 Queen Elizabeth II Cup (2200m) in November before well beaten in the G1 Arima Kinen (2500m) in December. Back to 1600m for the first time since April 2022 in the G2 Hanshin Himba Stakes last time but finished a disappointing 10th. |
2 |
Fierce Pride |
Five-time winner over 1600m and 1800m. Won her first group race in the G3 Turquoise Stakes (1600m) in December. Showed little in the G3 Nakayama Himba Stakes (1800m) in March last time |
3 |
Stunning Rose |
The prodigious talent who finished in the top five in each of her first 10 starts and landed her first G1 success in the Shuka Sho, the final leg of the filly’s triple crown in 2022. Finished eighth in her first-up in 2024 in G1 Osaka Hai (2000m) from a break of around ten and a half months in April latest. Races handy to the speed. |
4 |
Conch Shell |
Five-time winner from 16 starts and unbeaten in recent two starts over 1800m. Made all the way through to the finish and won by 0.5L in the G3 Nakayama Himba Stakes in March latest. Races on pace or handy. |
5 |
Umbrail |
The full sister to the 2018 G1 Mile Championship (1600m) winner Stelvio. Her highlight so far was probably a second in the G1 NHK Mile Cup (1600m) in 2023, in which she finished a head behind the winner Champagne Color. Returned from a break of around nine months in February. Finished second in the G2 Hanshin Himba Stakes (1600m) in April last time. This course and distance should be her best. Hold-up runner. |
6 |
Masked Diva |
Emerging talent who finished second 1L behind Liberty Island in the G1 Shuka Sho (2000m) in October 2023. Missed the start and finished sixth in the G3 Tokyo Shimbun Hai (1600m) in February but showed brilliant turn of speed to win the first 1600m trip in the G2 Hanshin Himba Stakes in April last time. |
7 |
Harper |
Had been unplaced only once in her first seven starts until she finished 9th in the G1 Arima Kinen (2500m) in December. Well beaten in the G1 Osaka Hai (2000m) last time. |
8 |
Sound Vivace |
The G2 Hanshin Himba Stakes winner in 2023 finished a good 5th in this race in the same year, but had two-digit finishes in the last two starts since returning from a break of around seven months. |
9 |
Ten Happy Rose |
A five-time winner from 23 starts. Won a listed race (1400m) in August 2023. Finished 2.3L 7th in the G3 Kyoto Himba Stakes (1400m) in February before finishing 2.8L 6th in the G2 Hanshin Himba Stakes (1600m) in April last time. |
10 |
Namur |
Freshened after being well beaten in the G1 Yasuda Kinen (1600m) in June 2023 and has showed outstanding performance in the recent four starts. Won the G1 Mile Championship (1600m) in November, before third in the G1 LONGINES Hong Kong Mile (1600m) in December. Finished a short-head second in the G1 Dubai Turf (1800m) latest. Generally ridden off the pace. |

Rouge Lignage |
Four-time winner from 14 starts. Finished below par at graded race in recent three starts. |

Winless since January 2023. Finished below par in three starts this term. Her three wins so far are all over 1600m. |
13 |
Moryana |
A proven runner from 1600m to 2200m. Finished only 1.5L fourth over the soft ground in the G2 American Jockey Club Cup in January. Finished third when back to 1600m in the G2 Hanshin Himba Stakes in April last time. |
14 |
Feel Sympathy |
Good second in the G3 Turquoise Stakes (1600m) in December when she hit the front and stayed on well until the last stage. Showed upward curve in recent two starts, fourth in the G3 Nakayama Himba Stakes (1800m) in March and a gallant second in the G3 Fukushima Himba Stakes (1800m) latest. |
15 |
Doe Eyes |
Finished brave third and fifth to Liberty Island in the G1 Hanshin Juvenile Fillies (1600m) in 2022 and the G1 Oka Sho (1600m) in 2023 respectively. Showed little over 2000m and 2400m but returned her form when back to 1600m in recent three starts. Usually races from middle or back. |
