Precise
A fascinating match-up between the respective 1000 Guineas and Irish 1000 Guineas winners, with the scoreboard currently tied at 1-1, and while True Love can get closer than she did at the Curragh, her stablemate PRECISE may again prove too strong at the finish.

Rated the best 2-y-o filly in Europe last season but reportedly suffered an interrupted preparation prior to her creditable seventh in the 1000 Guineas. However, she comprehensively reversed that form with an emphatic victory in the Irish 1000 Guineas and may again prove too strong for True Love.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCurragh1mGoodFlat1/11Newmarket (rowley)1mGood to FirmFlat7/19Newmarket (rowley)1mGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat1/10Curragh7fYieldingFlat1/7Goodwood7fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat1/7- 9(6)True LoveJ: W.

Having done well physically over the winter, she doubled her Group 1 tally in decisive fashion under Wayne Lordan in a strong 1000 Guineas. Not quite at that level when brushed aside by stablemate Precise in the Irish equivalent next time but has a serious chance on her Newmarket form.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCurragh1mGoodFlat2/11Newmarket (rowley)1mGood to FirmFlat1/19Leopardstown7f 42yYieldingFlat1/13Del Mar5fFlat8/12Newmarket (rowley)6fGood to FirmFlat1/9- 8(4)TouleenJ: Saffie OsborneT: Owen Burrows115-26Age 39/115/28/1

Travelled well but couldn't match Sukanya's turn of foot when runner-up in the Fred Darling on return before confirming that improvement when a never-nearer sixth in the 1000 Guineas. She lacks scope physically, though, and it's hard to see her turning the tables on True Love.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewmarket (rowley)1mGood to FirmFlat6/19Newbury7fGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat2/14Newmarket (rowley)7fGood to FirmFlat5/10Leicester7fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat1/8Newbury7fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat1/10- 1(2)BalantinaJ: Oisin MurphyT: Donnacha Aidan O'Brien, Ireland413251-Age 312/112/114/1

Resumed progress to land the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf at Del Mar in late-October, when patiently ridden before surging ahead late to make it 2-2 under Oisin Murphy, though she has a couple of very smart Classic winners to contend with on her first start as a 3-y-o.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosDel Mar1mFlat1/12Curragh7fGoodFlat5/6Deauville6f 211yGoodFlat2/8Ascot6fGood to FirmFlat3/17Curragh6fGoodFlat1/13- 7(9)TimeforshowcasingJ: Billy LoughnaneT: Charlie Johnston951-101Age 333/133/128/1

Versatile filly who finished well beaten in the 1000 Guineas prior to enhancing her fine strike rate with a much-improved success in the German 1000 Guineas at Dusseldorf (1m, soft) last time. Likely to be vulnerable back at the top level, though.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosDusseldorf7f 210yFlat1/10Newmarket (rowley)1mGood to FirmFlat16/19Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat1/7Goodwood7fGood to Soft (Soft in places)Flat1/14Doncaster1mGood to Soft (Good in places)Flat5/8- 2(3)Black Caviar GoldJ: William James LeeT: P.

Useful Group 3 winning filly who ran right up to her best when fourth in the Irish 1000 Guineas at the Curragh. The addition of a first-time visor is likely to be a positive given how she previously responded to cheekpieces, however, it's hard to see her reversing form with Precise/True Love.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCurragh1mGoodFlat4/11Curragh1mGoodFlat2/12Leopardstown7f 42yYieldingFlat9/13Curragh7fSoftFlat1/9Cork7fSoftFlat1/9- 6(1)SukanyaJ: Tom MarquandT: Jack Channon7429-10Age 340/140/133/1

Found the best turn of foot off a sound pace when a much-improved winner of the Fred Darling at Newbury on reappearance, travelling well/scoring with a bit in hand, but that form hasn't worked out and she ran no sort of race when trailing the field in the Irish 1000 Guineas subsequently.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCurragh1mGoodFlat11/11Newbury7fGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat1/14Newmarket (rowley)7fGood to FirmFlat9/10Leopardstown7fGood to YieldingFlat2/8Goodwood7fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat4/7- 3(8)Moon TargetJ: Luke MorrisT: Sir Mark Prescott Bt112738-Age 340/140/150/1

Wide-margin winner of Newmarket/Yarmouth novices prior to placing in the Group 3 Prestige/Group 2 Rockfel, and while probably over the top when well held in the Fillies' Mile in October, she faces a stiff task on return.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewmarket (rowley)1mGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat8/10Newmarket (rowley)7fGood to FirmFlat3/10Doncaster1mGood to Soft (Good in places)Flat7/8Goodwood7fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat2/7Yarmouth7f 3yGoodFlat1/6- 5(7)Rose GhaiyyathJ: Christophe SoumillonT: Richard Hughes14-06Age 350/150/166/1

Having won a valuable newcomers race at Deauville, she advanced her form in defeat when fourth in the Park Hill/tenth behind True Love/Precise in a strong renewal of the 1000 Guineas on return. Needs more but it's easy enough to forgive her subsequent effort on much more testing ground at Goodwood,DateCourseDistGoingTypePosGoodwood1m 1f 197ySoftFlat6/8Newmarket (rowley)1mGood to FirmFlat10/19Doncaster1mGood to Soft (Good in places)Flat4/8Deauville6f 211ySoftFlat1/15
