With live coverage scheduled and a deep field assembled, the contest promises a strong gallop from the outset, the draw exerting its usual subtle influence across a tight pack of pace-conscious riders.

Erosandpsyche are a three-time Tipperary-and-distance scorer whose last two runs pose questions, while Fandom’s American speed profile may be blunted by easing conditions should they occur.

Songhai look exceptionally well placed to deliver in this scenario. A three-year-old filly with a race-by-race upward curve, she brings a rock-solid profile for a Listed five furlongs, having rarely finished outside the first three and shaping better than the bare result at Deauville last time when third after encountering traffic.

Earlier in the summer she split high-class rivals at Cork over a similar trip, finishing second to Powerful Nation, before posting a notable third in Group 2 company at the Curragh; that sequence shows she handles pressure, travels kindly at speed and sustains her effort through the final half-furlong. Set here with 9-0 off an official mark of 98, she meets the conditions squarely and carries a weight that aligns with her developmental stage and consistency.

Ben Coen maintain the partnership for J P Murtagh, whose yard have been ticking over respectably across the last fortnight. The stable’s seasonal strike profile in this bracket holds up well, and the rider’s recent winners add confidence that timing and track position will be judged to a nicety. This is a fast race, but Songhai’s pattern of placing—232633 on the book this year—signals repeatability at five to six furlongs, and the immediate return to the minimum trip after Deauville looks ideal.

Two Stars arrive with stature, Powerful Nation remain a danger if bouncing back, and Valiant Force own peak form that demands respect; nevertheless, Songhai’s blend of tactical speed, recent sharpness and proven Listed-level competitiveness suggest she can thread a path, quicken when asked, and find enough at the death to shade a tight finish.
