John Gosden and George Strawbridge last won this filly contest along with the subsequent Classic Rainbow View disappointment in 2008, when the race was held at Ascot and rounded a corner.

Given her off-beat racing style, this year’s contender Indigo Girl might well have been a fit for that design rather than the wide open spaces of Rowley Mile.

Though unrelated to Rainbow View, Indigo Girl is a sister to the elegant Journey who was undefeated in two starts on the track in 2015 and 2016, though it was over a mile and a half.

Robert Havlin, who rode Dubawi’s daughter to score in their Yarmouth debut, gets a rare call-up from Group 1 as Frankie Dettori, who led Indigo Girl home in Group 2 May Hill Stakes in Doncaster, is still isolated. then the Arch.

Gosden said: “Indigo Girl came out of Doncaster in great shape and had a great time under Rab on Tuesday. Her off-beat running style was well suited for Town Moor and this will be a different test.”

Rockfel winner Isabella Giles is another top contender, while last month’s Moyglare Stud Stakes Group 1 winner Shale, runner-up Pretty Gorgeous, Snowfall (ninth) and Mother Earth (eleventh) face off again. The last Curragh contest winner to continue at this was the High Class Minding in 2015.

What they say

Clive Cox, Isabella Giles’ coach
He came out of his Rockfel victory in good shape. We are not worried about the ground or if it will soften further as it was very difficult when he won the Prestige Stakes at Goodwood. She is molded like she should go the mile and is an exciting filly.

William Haggas, Lilac Road Coach
This will be her last race of the season and hopefully it doesn’t rain too much as she doesn’t want an effort. It’s a tough race, but you deserve to take the risk.

Aidan O’Brien, Mother Earth and Snowfall coach
Mother Earth is in good shape. She was a bit disappointing on the last day, but we hope she can put that race behind her. The plan was to race in France. Snowfall is in good shape too. We think he is better than what he has shown on the track and he is working very well at home.

Joseph O’Brien, Pretty Gorgeous Coach
We are hopeful. He has been training well, but it has not been an ideal preparation with the mess that happened in France. She was in France so it was a bit of a headache. She is in good shape.

Donnacha O’Brien, Shale Coach
She is in good shape. We believe the trip will adapt. The slower the ground, the greater the downside. I don’t think it affects her much, but she is at her best on better ground. Looks like he wanted the mile on the last day.

Kevin Ryan, Star Of Emaraaty coach
It’s a tough race, but we’ll have to see if he wants seven furlongs on this type of terrain. Hopefully it dries out a bit.

Roger Varian, coach of Zabeel Queen
I was a bit trapped by her drawing in Doncaster last time when she was still running a little green. Hopefully she learned a lot from that and this will tell us a little more about her. We hope that he will take care of the field.
