Useful filly was a dual 1m winner in 2024 and she comes here on the back of a good neck third of 9 in listed race at Goodwood (8f, good to firm) 35 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts once more.

Bagged a listed event at Saint-Cloud last March before coming in second in this but she's yet to fire in a couple of runs this term, last of 9 in listed race at Goodwood (8f, good to firm) 35 days ago. Cheekpieces are reached for now.

Winless but generally progressive last summer and she signed off with a solid sixth of 15 to Lady Boba in Pride Stakes at Newmarket (10f) in October. Can't be discounted on her seasonal return.

On the up last autumn when scoring over 7f at Haydock and Chester. Beat only one in 1m Haydock handicap two weeks ago though so needs to get back on track.

Smart mare resumed with an encouraging third of 8 to See The Fire in Middleton Stakes at York (10.2f, good) 23 days ago, going well for a long way. Third in this 12 months ago and she's not taken lightly back in trip.

Reliable mare reappeared from 6 months off with a good fourth of 9 in listed race at Goodwood (8f, good to firm) 35 days ago, doing too much too soon. One to consider with that run under her belt.

Kingman filly was highly tried in 2024 but signed off with success in 1m listed race at Sandown in September. Appeals as the sort to do better in 2025 so she's a likely player on her seasonal return with usual cheekpieces fitted.

This smart mare ended 2024 by completing a hat-trick in 1m listed contest at Saint-Cloud but she came in just eighth of 9 to Alcantor in Prix Edmond Blanc there (8f, soft) 70 days ago. The sort to bounce back though.

Largely progressive Invincible Spirit filly returned with an encouraging ¾-length third of 6 to Great Generation in Chartwell Stakes at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Very much one to consider back up in trip.

Ended her time with William Haggas with a career-best victory in 7f listed race at Ascot in October. This demands more but this gutsy sort shouldn't be underestimated on her yard debut/return.

Hello Youmzain filly got back on the up when a very good second of 9 in listed race at York (1m, good) 22 days ago, ridden more patiently. Remains lightly raced so she needs considering.

Forecasts

Skellet (3/1), Royal Dress (16/5), Bermuda Longtail (4/1), Sirona (15/2), Spiritual (9/1), Sparks Fly (11/1), Bright Thunder (14/1), Chic Colombine (22/1), Sunfall (22/1), Imperial Quarter (25/1), Kindest Nation (125/1)

Verdict

An open Group 3 to kick off Derby Day and it could pay to side with Ralph Beckett's returning SKELLET who kept the highest company for much of 2024 before ending with victory in a Sandown listed contest and appeals as the sort to kick on this season. Royal Dress posted a good third in this contest 12 months ago and teed herself up for another prominent showing when third in York's Middleton Stakes so heads the list of dangers. Spiritual, Sparks Fly, Sirona and Sunfall all command respect too.
