BLUE BOLT ended her 2025 campaign with a second in the Group 1 Sun Chariot at Newmarket in October and confirmed her well-being when taking a Listed race on her comeback at Goodwood. Andrew Balding's filly may have more improvement left to come and she sets the standard. Kon Tiki wasn't far behind her at Goodwood and should not be underestimated. Catalina Delcarpio put in a career best at Leopardstown last time and is another likely to go well, while Friendly Soul and Godspeed are others with claims.
