Form & Verdict

Galileo 3yo whose high-class dam Meccas's Angel excelled at York, twice winning the 5f Nunthorpe; busy as 2yo but hit new heights when raised in trip for Group 1s at the Curragh on latest two outings, coming from last to third in the 1m2f Pretty Polly (Emily Upjohn nearly 4l ahead) and meeting trouble in running when never-nearer second to You Got To Me in Irish Oaks (1m4f); acts on any going; needs extra but it has looked as if she has more to give.

Form & Verdict

Won the Lingfield Oaks Trial, before finishing fourth both in the Oaks itself and when behind two of these rivals at Royal Ascot; the first and third of those performances were from the front, clear for most of the way, but she raced in mid-division when tongue tied in Irish Oaks at the Curragh (1m4f, good) and she led over 1f out before holding Content by three quarters of a length; this demands better still but she's heading the right way.

Twice something of a tearaway front-runner earlier this term but she seems to be settling down a bit and delivered much better form when tongue tied and coming from mid-division in the Irish Oaks at the Curragh (1m4f, good; won) and Yorkshire Oaks at York (1m4f, good to firm; second) on last two starts; needs to keep a lid on it over a longer trip today but she's been galloping on in those last two races and has a stout enough pedigree; another who's firmly in the mix on form too.
