Verdict

Last year's winner ONE LOOK has an excellent chance on these terms following her second in the Pretty Polly. Nyra has made a fine start to life with Joseph O'Brien and is feared most, while it would be no surprise to see Dreamasar get back on the up.

5	Comfortable winner of this race (soft) last season before close third in the Prix de l'Opera at Longchamp. Ran another cracker in Group 1 company when runner-up behind Estrange in Pretty Polly here (good to firm) 3 weeks ago. Has an excellent chance on these terms back down in grade. 1st Pick 5 One Look (Ire) Jockey: James Doyle Trainer: P. Twomey, Ireland J: James Doyle T: P. Twomey, Ireland	100	-	-	-	63%

4	Strong-travelling sort. Won Hamburg Group 3/finished close third in the German Oaks for previous yard. Her stable debut fourth in a course listed race (1½m) has worked out well and finished a smart second in Munster Oaks last time. Likely player who should be every bit as effective back over 1¼m. 2nd Pick 4 Nyra (Ger) Jockey: D. B. Mcmonagle Trainer: Joseph Patrick O'brien, Ireland J: D. B.

1	Lightly-raced filly. Took step up to listed company in her stride when making it 2-2 for the season at Haydock in May. Left poorly placed following another slow start when fourth in all-weather Group 3 at Newcastle subsequently. Had looked most progressive prior to that and may get back on the up. 3rd Pick 1 Dreamasar (Ire) Jockey: Billy Loughnane Trainer: Ed Walker J: Billy Loughnane T: Ed Walker	97	-	-	-	17%
