Whistlejacket
Three wins from eight starts at two, highlighted by Group 1 win in the Prix Morny; status as a top juvenile underlined by Phoenix Stakes second to today's rival Babouche, and same placing in the Middle Park; had to work hard to beat stablemate Ides Of March over C&D on seasonal debut; should be sharper now; might not the want the ground too quick but this should be fine.

Babouche
Won her first three starts, including the Group 3 Anglesey Stakes and the Group 1 Phoenix Stakes, beating Whistlejacket on the latter occasion; winning run came to an end on soft ground behind Lake Victoria at Newmarket in the Cheveley Park; failed to cope with a 5lb penalty at Cork on return; should be close to peak fitness now.

Took a huge step forward from her debut when a 100-1 maiden winner over C&D last September; big task here; ran out of steam late when a creditable fourth in a 7f Group 3 race at Leopardstown on seasonal debut.
