ENBIHAAR had useful form last year but she’s gone up a couple of levels this season, winning three of her four starts. She has to give plenty of weight to the younger fillies but her last two victories have come at this level and she stays very well. Dame Malliot is also penalised for winning a Group 2 at Deauville but there is stamina in her pedigree and she can’t be left out of calculations. Delphinia was fifth in the Epsom Oaks but didn’t run up that form when third at Cork, though Ryan Moore prefers her to South Sea Pearl and Peach Tree. Star Terms and Oydis have plenty to find at the weights but Vivid Diamond produced a career-best when winning a Listed race at Chester over this trip.
