7 (8)	Arrest Bay J:Frankie Dettori T:John & Thady Gosden	J:Frankie Dettori T:John & Thady Gosden	127	—	12-105	110	121	102	57d	—	—	-14	29.3	0.23/1	10/11 52%
Easy win in Group 3 Chester Vase (1m4f, soft) in May; disappointing on good to firm since
8 (2)	Klondike Bay J:Tom Marquand T:William Haggas	J:Tom Marquand T:William Haggas	124	t	124	104	116	77	37d	—	—	+9	27.2	0.75/1	4 25%
Needs better still but, for one who has had only three races, it may well be possible
3 (6)	Kemari Bay J:William Buick T:Charlie Appleby	J:William Buick T:Charlie Appleby	133	p	6-4251	108	119	71	49d	—	—	+6	17.8	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Listed win last time; proven stamina and plenty of form would see him seriously involved
2 (4)	Jack Darcy Bay J:Neil Callan T:Paul & Oliver Cole	J:Neil Callan T:Paul & Oliver Cole	133	—	47-552	107	117	91	15d	—	—	+9	16.4	2.25/1	10 10%
2nd of seven in Group 3 at Goodwood (1m4f, good to soft) two weeks ago was his best form
4 (7)	Shandoz Bay J:David Egan T:Roger Varian	J:David Egan T:Roger Varian	133	—	10/21/	106	-	-	656d	—	—	+10	15.6	3.25/1	14 7%
Going beyond 1m4f should suit if he's sufficiently tuned up after 656-day absence
NR (3)	Enemy Bay J:Richard Kingscote T:Ian Williams	J:Richard Kingscote T:Ian Williams	133	t	128550	107	115	77	18d	—	—	+12	16.3	4.75/1	20 5%
Went off the boil this spring and tailed-off last when 200-1 in the Goodwood Cup
5 (5)	Ching Shih Bay J:Oisin Murphy T:David Simcock	J:Oisin Murphy T:David Simcock	130	—	60-338	95	107	66	21d	—	—	+8	12.3	6.00/1	25 4%
1m4f Listed form this season shows she has much more to find if she's to play leading role
6 (1)	Luisa Casati Bay J:Sean Levey T:Tom Ward	J:Sean Levey T:Tom Ward	130	—	4-3156	104	114	99	14d	—	—	+11	14.3	8.00/1	33 3%
Forgiven her Goodwood show last time (1m6f, heavy) but still needs overall improvement
