Runners Spotlight

1
Balantina
Favorite

Won her maiden here over 6f and has since held her own in Group 3s, finishing third in the Albany at Royal Ascot and then short-headed by an unbeaten French filly in a 7f Group 3 at Deauville (good); brings solid form credentials and still improving by the looks.

Jockey: Gavin RyanTrainer: Donnacha Aidan O'Brien
2
Brownstown

Won a barrier trial and followed up on rules debut over 7f at Leopardstown (soft); finished 4l behind Composing in a Group 3 at Leopardstown but racing keenly didn't help matters and she remains of interest.

Jockey: Ben CoenTrainer: Gavin Cromwell
3
Composing

Only fifth to Balantina on debut but typically for a Ballydoyle 2yo she's soon left that form behind and it was all very straightforward from the front in a Group 3 at Leopardstown a month ago (7.5f, good to yielding); hard to knock with surely more to come.

Jockey: Wayne LordanTrainer: A P O'Brien
4
Evolutionist

Has achieved the least of these but she cost 600,000euros as a yearling and probably accounted for a good filly when the pair were clear at Newmarket (1m, good to firm); has the Moyglare entry (as do the remainder) and she's not to be underestimated.

Jockey: Shane FoleyTrainer: K R Burke
5
Skydance

Ran well in a 6f Group 2 here when just behind the smart Lady Iman but comfortably beaten by both Suzie Songs and Composing either side of that; some imagination is required to envisage her reversing placings with both those fillies.
