French challenger SAJIR looks open to further progress and is taken to come out on top in an interesting clash with Godolphin filly Romantic Style, who has built up a good record over 6f. Apollo One and Lethal Levi both looked better than ever when last seen, while the improving Royal Zabeel is another contender who can be viewed positively.[Steve Boow]

Successful in similar event at Ascot (6f) on last appearance, looking better than ever; other form features good efforts in several major handicaps; incurs 3lb penalty but is likely to run well.
Useful on the continent, having been successful in Italy and made the frame in Listed/Group sprints in France; needs some improvement on debut for new yard but market support should be heeded.
Very useful 6f/7f handicapper who ended last season with two wins, including the Ayr Gold Cup, looking better than ever; well worth his place at Group level and has a fighting chance on the figures.
Has form figures of 21121, all over 7f on AW, since joining shrewd new connections; bagged Listed honours last time; possibilities, provided that progress is transferred back to turf and back to 6f.
Absent since finishing down the field in this race last year, failing to match his 2022 Abernant effort (creditable fourth); very useful on his day but the betting may prove best guide to expectations.
French raider whose form includes a Group 3 win and good effort in the Prix Jean Prat last term; justified favouritism at Chantilly (6.5f, AW) on reappearance and looks interesting with further improvement plausible.
Finished fourth in last season's French 1,000 Guineas; suited by the drop back to 6f at Meydan (Listed) most recently, taking her form figures over this trip to 7111; she's 1-1 over C&D and warrants respect.
