OVERVIEW: SOME AMERICAN (2) has been very impressive in his two victories since a second in the Breeders Crown and he has the best draw out of the main chances so he should prove hard to beat. BAY OF BISCAY (7) was resuming since winning the Nutrien Final in April when he worked home well from midfield to finish third behind TILLY JAYNE (5) on June 22. He should be fitter from that run and is very strong so he must be rated highly. KINGMAN (6) is resuming since May but he finished second behind the top filly Very Pretty in fast time at a recent Melton trial performance so he cannot be left out of calculations. SMOKEN ACE (4) and TILLY JAYNE (5) are both racing in great form and must be respected. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 1,3,4,5 RATINGS: 2/ 6,7/ 5/ 4/ 1/ 3

OVERVIEW: SOME AMERICAN (2) has been very impressive in his two victories since a second in the Breeders Crown and he has the best draw out of the main chances so he should prove hard to beat. BAY OF BISCAY (7) was resuming since winning the Nutrien Final in April when he worked home well from midfield to finish third behind TILLY JAYNE (5) on June 22. He should be fitter from that run and is very strong so he must be rated highly. KINGMAN (6) is resuming since May but he finished second behind the top filly Very Pretty in fast time at a recent Melton trial performance so he cannot be left out of calculations. SMOKEN ACE (4) and TILLY JAYNE (5) are both racing in great form and must be respected. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 1,3,4,5 RATINGS: 2/ 6,7/ 5/ 4/ 1/ 3
