MEDITATE lost her unbeaten record when no match for the high-class Tahiyra in the Group 1 Moyglare over 7f at the Curragh. The Albany Stakes winner at Ascot earlier, the Ballydoyle filly won’t mind this drop back down in trip and will cope with any change in the going. Trillium also seems to handle any ground and followed her Molecomb Stakes success with victory in the Flying Childers at Doncaster while Swingalong took the step up in class in her stride when landing the Group 2 Lowther at York last month. Lezoo and stablemate Juliet Sierra won Group 3 races on their respective latest starts but Group 2 winner Mawj disappointed in the Lowther last time. Treasure Trove is preferred to compatriot Wave Machine of the remainder.
