Yielding to soft, soft in places View all races

Formscan By Tom Weekes - FAIYUM was the beaten favourite in her three runs this year but will be suited by easing ground, and won this race last year. A smart performer who finished narrowly behind subsequent Group 1-winner Barnavara in June 2025, the selection has undoubtably been frustrating this year but ran solidly in the Snow Fairy Stakes last month and likes today’s course-and-distance. Sindria finished narrowly behind in that recent Curragh race and should compete, with softening ground also a help. Star Performer easily defeated both Hollys Graces and Classiest to win a course-and-distance Listed race last month but faces tougher opponents here. Caught U Sleeping would prefer good ground and is tried in first-time cheekpieces.
