The market favourite at 1.92 after a creditable third-place debut at Newbury 24 days ago, beaten just 2 lengths. She steps up from fast ground to normal conditions and has the strongest jockey-trainer combination (Fallon and Haggas at 25% win rate), which explains why she's heavily backed despite limited experience.

Fly Smartly has shown the most improvement in this field with a third-place finish at Naas followed by a closer fifth-place effort at Curragh—both on Irish turf. This will be her first run on British ground and at a new distance, which makes form difficult to translate.

Two races on record with two sixth-place finishes, and this will be Desert Smoke's first attempt on normal ground after running on faster surfaces at York and Newmarket. The recent form is uninspiring, though she remains one of the shorter-priced runners at 7.2.

Ashina is a racecourse debutant with one run already behind her—a sixth-place finish that tells us very little at this stage. She has a strong jockey-trainer partnership (Tudhope and O'Meara combine at nearly 15% win rate), which suggests the yard has confidence in her for a second attempt.

"A nice filly who's probably more one for 6f. We'll aim to start her over that distance shortly and she should get further later in the year. 27-05-26"
Myesme makes her debut here with bloodlines rooted in speed (Havana Grey and Exceed And Excel), suggesting she should have the tools for 6 furlongs. The Bethell-Hart pairing has limited win history together, making this a fresh partnership on an untested runner.
Lady Titania finished well beaten in seventh on debut at York 31 days ago and, like many debutants here, is tackling normal ground for the first time. She has a hood fitted and comes from the Burke stable, which has a respectable record, but there's no form to suggest improvement yet.

A racecourse debutant by Perfect Power, a sire known for early speed, which could be relevant over 6 furlongs. She has no track record to examine, placing her in the same guessing game as fellow first-timers, though the breeding suggests a horse built for this distance.
Oh So Slow Sloth has been absent for 85 days since finishing sixth at Hamilton—the longest gap between races in this field. A reappearance after such a lay-off is rarely straightforward, though the hood suggests the yard is trying something different to help her focus.
Dadawada finished fifth on her only outing 41 days ago and is the least experienced runner here with no wins or placed finishes. The jockey-trainer pairing has never won together, making this an unproven combination.
How do odds work?The first number is what you win, the second is what you bet. So 5/2 means you win £5 for every £2. 4/1 means you win £4 for every £1. The bigger the first number, the less likely bookmakers think the horse will win — but the more you'd win if it does.
