Jane Chapple-Hyam’s representative Saffron Beach, was highly impressive when trouncing Mother Earth in the Gr.1 Sun Chariot by 3 lengths and in her sole 2022 outing, Saffron Beach delivered a good effort in the Gr.1 Dubai Turf. She’s consistent and classy enough to impress here as well. Bashkirova wowed in the Princess Elizabeth Stakes at the Derby and is the one to provide Saffron Beach with a tough contest. Both French-raider Sibila Spain and Novemba are also worth a mention.

The daughter of Zoffany utterly failed to shine in the Gr.1 Lockinge Stakes in May despite the fact her class should’ve been enough to snatch a fine place. The clash between Aidan O’Brien’s filly, Mother Earth Saffron Beach, should be one to watch.
Bashkirova could be the one that makes its first here, thanks to her promising victory in a Gr.3 race over a mile and a half of a furlong. French trainer Christopher Head then relies on Sibila Spain

The bay filly stuck to the middle distances as a 2YO, collecting two-fourth places among the elite, while in 2022, she was shortened to a mile. Suddenly, she bolted up to score her premiere Gr.2 win in the Prix du Muguet.
The last to mention is Germany-bound Novemba who ran fourth in the last year’s Gr.1 Coronation Stakes. Her 2022 performance wasn’t a stellar one but she’s proven she doesn’t mind traveling to the United Kingdom and competing with the elite here.
