Age: 2 yo Filly

Form

Group 2 Lowther entry; never figured on good to firm in a novice at Lingfield (5f; 16-1) or Group 3 Albany at Royal Ascot (6f; 250-1); didn't get a clear run when 17th of 25 in the latter and is capable of better, but others in this have clearly accomplished more, including Albany eighth Tall Trees.

Form

20-1 when fourth of nine in a novice over C&D (good) three weeks ago, which she should build on but she was nearly 10l behind Scommessa Sicura, so this renewal of rivalry demands a huge leap forward.

30,000euros yearling by Churchill; second foal; dam French Group-placed 5f 2yo winner (RPR 106), half-sister to French 1m/10.5f winner Antolya, out of 1m-winning half-sister to a useful 1m-10.5f winner; late foal and her trainer's record also suggests she is probably one for later on.

W: 9st 2lb

Age: 2 yo Filly

Form

Group 1 Moyglare Stud entry, by Wootton Bassett; sister to 7f 2yo winner Amadeus Mozart (RPR 105 over 1m2f this year); weak 6-1 shot and claimer ridden when 5l third of eight in a maiden at Listowel (6.2f, good) in May, looking green and never a serious threat to two pretty useful principals; should know a lot more about it this time and, all in all, could be a big improver for top connections.

Second at Yarmouth (6f), Newbury (6.5f, good to firm) and Newmarket (7f) in all three starts; made the running last time when beaten by a neck but finishing ahead of Carpe Portus (by nearly 10l) and Lady Miranda; sets a clear standard.

160,000gns yearling by Havana Grey; 7-2 outsider of three and came from last when runner-up in a novice here (6f, good to firm) 13 days ago, with all of them newcomers and there were just two necks between them; that was a promising introduction.

Form

Group 1 Moyglare Stud entry; green on debut but made some good late headway on both starts, in the latter when eighth of 25 in the Group 3 Albany at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm; 100-1) and that was despite being switched across to the stands' side from her low draw and seeing daylight only when it was far too late; serious contender granted a clear shot at it this time.

Betting Forecast

25/1 Blue Sign, 33/1 Carpe Portus, 50/1 Chartwell Rose, 66/1 Lady Miranda, 5/1 Madam Secretary, 15/8 Peaceful Charm, 2/1 Scommessa Sicura, 10/1 Sexy Chick, 6/1 Tall Trees, 20/1 Tegernsee

Verdict

Scommessa Sicura brings the most experience and nearly won over C&D last time but there is plenty to catch the eye among her opponents. The 2,000,000euros price tag, a smart brother and her trainer’s record in this race all augur well for newcomer Peaceful Charm (second choice) and it will probably prove telling if the betting does so too. Madam Secretary could be a big improver for Aidan O’Brien but watch out also for last month’s Royal Ascot runner TALL TREES. She was 100-1 for the Albany and Blue Sign was 250-1 but trouble in running prevented both of them from showing what they were truly capable of and Tall Trees, who did eventually find some space, was one of the strongest finishers.[Richard Austen]
