Formscan By Mark Nunan - SUMIHA looked a promising type when winning a Curragh maiden over 1m2f in August and is taken to cope with the step up to stakes company. The daughter of Sea The Stars should have no problem with the extra quarter-mile and the filly she beat at the Curragh, Thunder Roll, went one better in a Listed contest at Galway next time. The latter lines up here under a 3lb penalty and had a good run in a Group 3 over course and distance earlier last year so merits plenty of respect. Countess Of Tyrone easily won a Galway maiden last summer and is another taking a big rise in class. The bare form is nothing special but respect for her trainer means she has to be on the shortlist. Trevaunance was a dual Group winner in France in 2022 and ran well in Group 1 company a couple of times last year. She didn't shine in two runs in Dubai in the spring but should be sharper for them.
