Successful in Naas Group 3 that threw up the Albany winners in 2022 and 2023; big player
11 (12)	Mountain Breeze Chestnut J:William Buick T:Charlie Appleby	J:William Buick T:Charlie Appleby	128	—	11	-	105	97	34d	—	—	-1	24.6	0.75/1	3/1 25%
Has created a highly favourable impression with her stylish performances at Newmarket
6 (17)	Heavens Gate Bay J:Wayne Lordan T:A P O'Brien	J:Wayne Lordan T:A P O'Brien	128	—	21	-	104	97	26d	—	—	+7	16	2.13/1	17/2 11%
Registered her Curragh win in comfortable fashion and looks a potential Group filly
17 (13)	Twafeeg Bay J:Hollie Doyle T:Archie Watson	J:Hollie Doyle T:Archie Watson	128	—	1	-	101	93	20d	—	—	+4	12.4	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Green in latter stages and won with something to spare at Doncaster; interesting prospect
15 (11)	Simmering Bay J:Jamie Spencer T:Ollie Sangster	J:Jamie Spencer T:Ollie Sangster	128	—	3	-	94	81	27d	—	—	-3	5.1	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Promising third at York and that form is working out nicely; open to improvement
2 (3)	California Dreamer Bay J:David Egan T:Adrian Murray	J:David Egan T:Adrian Murray	128	—	23	-	102	92	33d	—	—	+4	7.6	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Only 1l behind Fairy Godmother in Naas Group 3; another good run looks plausible
NR (15)	Liberalised Bay J:Daniel Tudhope T:K R Burke	J:Daniel Tudhope T:K R Burke	128	—	1	-	89	63	15d	—	—	+8	10.9	7.00/1	28/1 3%

£125,000 breeze-up purchase; drew clear for a ready win at Ripon; looks promising
1 (4)	Burning Pine Bay J:Joel Rosario T:Wesley A Ward	J:Joel Rosario T:Wesley A Ward	128	b	1	-	100	-	56d	—	—	+8	10.6	10.00/1	40/1 2%
US filly; won comfortably at Keeneland; trainer's Royal Ascot 2yo winners all came at 5f
8 (5)	Jayvee Bay J:Chris Hayes T:Brian Ellison	J:Chris Hayes T:Brian Ellison	128	—	19	-	89	72	35d	—	—	+5	7.7	10.00/1	40/1 2%

4 (14)	Cradle Of Love Bay J:Dylan Browne McMonagle T:Joseph Patrick O'Brien	J:Dylan Browne McMonagle T:Joseph Patrick O'Brien	128	b	332	-	84	72	19d	—	—	+7	9.1	12.50/1	50/1 2%
She has a lot to find on the figures and seems quirky; blinkers replace cheekpieces
12 (7)	Nad Alshiba Snow Bay J:Rossa Ryan T:Michael Appleby	J:Rossa Ryan T:Michael Appleby	128	—	24	-	87	73	13d	—	—	+2	4	12.50/1	50/1 2%

16 (10)	Substitute Chestnut J:Oisin Murphy T:Charlie Johnston	J:Oisin Murphy T:Charlie Johnston	128	—	13	-	94	81	22d	—	—	+9	10.3	20.00/1	80/1 1%

Defeat at Salisbury is flanked by bigger performances in France; something to prove
9 (2)	Kylie Of Lochalsh Bay J:Hayley Turner T:Gay Kelleway	J:Hayley Turner T:Gay Kelleway	128	—	4	-	70	37	42d	—	—	-1	0.2	62.50/1	250/1 0%
