7/4

Comment: Behind Choisya on first run for this trainer (Keeneland) when beaten half a length to finish runner-up in the Jenny Wiley Stakes two months ago; has picked up some decent prize money in 11 starts in France, winning four times; must be high on list.

Kehoe Beach

Jockey: Irad Ortiz Jr Trainer: Wesley Ward Age/Wt: 4/8-10 F: 11-3

4/1

Comment: Has chalked up four wins from her last seven; won a Grade 2 six months ago; good effort in the Jenny Wiley Stakes when 1l third two months ago (Keeneland), a race won by the reopposing Choisya; big run on the cards given she has won after a layoff previously.

7/1

Comment: Third in the Falmouth (Newmarket) last July; has picked up some decent prize money in five starts in Britain and Ireland, winning three times; layoff to overcome; William Mott's runners are going great guns at the moment; poses a threat as she has joined a top yard ahead of her debut on these shores.

Sacred Wish

Jockey: John Velazquez Trainer: George Weaver Age/Wt: 5/8-12 F: 31-247
