Albamara romped home in 8.5f Epsom maiden last summer having looked unlucky loser at Kempton a week earlier. No show in Fillies' Mile following month but remains with potential for 2012.

Apothecary raced solely on AW, winning Lingfield maiden and 9.5f Wolverhampton handicap. Respectable effort in Oaks Trial last month and respected, though Great Heavens seemingly yard's first string.

Devine Guest shaped with promise when third in C&D maiden won by Vow in April, weakening close home. Open to improvement, but this is a good deal tougher.

Great Heavens is a sister to Nathaniel. Form of Haydock maiden has worked out and she did her bit for it when easily winning 11.5f Yarmouth event on return (heavy going). Drops back in trip but looks the class act.

Inchina landed C&D maiden on return in April. Poor effort in Cheshire Oaks next time, though, off bridle before most, and needs to bounce back.

Miss Cato boasts an impressive strike rate, winning 4 from 6 starts. Another easy success at Sandown last time, but that came off a mark of 69, and this likely to require a whole lot more.

Villa Royale showed promise around 1m at 2 yrs, though hung badly left on polytrack final start. Could have more to offer this year now stepped up in trip.

Timeform 1-2-3:
1. Great Heavens
2. Albamara
3. Apothecary

Timeform Verdict: Great Heavens drops in trip after winning easily over 11.5f last month, and though she's bred to stay beyond that, she's hard to oppose such is the untapped potential she possesses. Albamara, who was thought good enough to contest a Group 1 at 2 yrs, likely has more to offer this term and looks a threat.
