SMOKEN quickly reached a useful level last autumn and is taken to stretch her unbeaten record to 3. Whirl should be better for last month's Curragh reappearance and might be the one to give Ralph Beckett's filly most to think about.

Verdict
Won a 1m Group 3 at the Curragh on her final 2-y-o start. Shaped as if needing the run when 4½ lengths sixth of 9 to One Look in another Group 3 there on reappearance 32 days ago. Will stay 1¼m and remains open to improvement for a top stable which has mopped up the British Classic trials.

Went 2-2 over 1m on testing ground last autumn, latterly a Newmarket listed race. Should stay 1¼m. A smart filly in the making.

Verdict
Dubawi filly out of a Group 3 winning sister to 1000 Guineas/Oaks winner Love. Decisive winner on her 1¼m Newbury debut (good) last month. A sure-fire improver.

Verdict
Overcame inexperience to make a winning debut over 7f at Newmarket last summer. Good fourth in May Hill at Doncaster (1m, good) in September and possibly unsuited by testing ground when well-held fourth in French Group 3 final start. The step up to 1¼m should suit.

Verdict
Night of Thunder filly who is 2-2 on AW at Lingfield, latterly a novice over this trip 16 days ago. Plenty to find on form stepping up in class but she's almost certainly capable of better for a leading stable with a good record in this race.

Progressive form, making it third time lucky in 1¼m Sandown maiden (good to soft) 19 days ago. Smoken has to be considered the yard's first string but this daughter of Camelot almost certainly has more to offer.
