Blue Bolt didn't live up to market expectations at Southwell last month but she should know more this time and is a likely improver on this step up in trip. Kempton winner Electrifarhh is respected under a penalty on her return, while the two striking newcomers Bintazzo and Satavia need a close look in the market. However, the vote goes to CHINKARA, who sets the standard on her promising effort in a useful novice at Ascot and represents a yard that had a 42% record with 3yos here last season.[David Moon]

Ran green when last of four on Newbury debut (7f, soft) in September but she found plenty of progress upped to 1m when landing a gamble at Kempton (AW) the following month; has a penalty on her return but that latest form has been boosted by the runner-up since and she's respected back on turf.
300,000euros yearling; half-sister to seven winners including Sudirman (6f 2yo including Group 1; RPR 115), Star of India (7f-10.5f including Australia; 112) and Roman Empire (1m 2yo/HK 1m1f; 111); dam 5f-8.5f winner (including US 8.5f stakes; 103); lots to like on paper and she needs a close look on debut.
400,000euros yearling; never involved when 10-11 favourite at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) last month but that was behind a useful rival and she made some encouraging late headway; should know much more this time and it wouldn't be a surprise if she took a major step forward upped in trip.
Didn't live up to market expectations on Kempton debut in December; reappeared with fifth of six at Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month but was only beaten around 2l in that useful contest and she sets the standard on that promising effort; key player for yard that had a 42% record with 3yos here last year.
Third foal; half-sister to 1m4f winner Haskoy (including Group 3; RPR 112); dam 1m2f Listed winner (101), sister to 1m4f winner Ottavio, half-sister to 1m Group 1 winner Spinning Queen, out of unraced half-sister to three high-class 1m-1m2f performers; interesting newcomer and she needs watching in market.
Runner-up on Leicester debut (7f, soft) last September and she reappeared with another eyecatching effort when a close fourth at Haydock (1m, good) last month; has something to find here but it's still early days and she should have more to offer.
