Wuheida, Roly Poly Headline Falmouth

In her last two races, Roly Poly had to settle for second behind stablemate Winter, but Winter is not entered in the July 14 Tattersalls Falmouth Stakes (G1) at Newmarket, making Roly Poly the early favorite.

Roly Poly, a War Front   filly out of the Galileo mare Misty For Me, has only three wins from 12 starts for trainer Aidan O'Brien and her Coolmore owners. But many of her losses have been to the top fillies of her generation.

She was second to Brave Anna in the Connelly's Red Mills Cheveley Park Stakes (G1) at Newmarket last September; then she was beaten less than five lengths as New Money Honey won the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf (G1T) at Santa Anita Park; and she finished sixth, only four lengths back, in the Abu Dhabi Poule d'Essai des Pouliches (G1) or French 1000 Guineas.

Only Winter has been better in Roly Poly's last two races, the Tattersalls Irish 1000 Guineas (G1) at the Curragh and the Coronation Stakes (G1) at Royal Ascot.

Her last win came more than a year ago, in the Duchess of Cambridge Stakes (G2) at the same July meeting at Newmarket.

The Falmouth pits 3-year-olds against older fillies and mares, but this year's field of seven puts only a pair of 4-year-olds against the youngsters—and they have attracted scant attention in early wagering.

Godolphin's 3-year-old Wuheida comes to the Falmouth off an extended vacation following a 2-for-2 season capped by a group 1 victory at Chantilly in October. The Charlie Appleby trainee is a Dubawi filly out of the Singspiel mare Hibaayeb.

Godolphin also fields Arabian Hope, a 3-year-old Distorted Humor   filly bred in the United States by Hill 'n' Dale Equine Holdings. She has won all three starts this year, two of them on the Kempton all-weather. Josephine Gordon keeps the mount for trainer Saeed bin Suroor.

Sea of Grace, a Born to Sea filly trained by William Haggas, makes her third start of the season, coming off a second-place finish to Precieuse in the aforementioned French 1000 Guineas.

Delectation, trained by ace German mentor Andreas Wohler, adds an international flavor after finishing fourth as the favorite in the WEMPE 97th German 1000 Guineas (G2) at Dusseldorf. But the Delegator filly beat only two rivals in the French Guineas.

Greta G, a 4-year-old filly by Exchange Rate, is the better-regarded of the 4-year-olds. She raced last year in Argentina and made little impression in her first British start at Royal Ascot for trainer John Gosden. Opal Tiara, a group 2 winner in Dubai this spring, rounds out the field.

The Falmouth, a part of the British Champion Series, is contested at one mile and goes as the fourth race on the July 14 card. The program also includes the Duke of Cambridge Stakes for 2-year-olds at six furlongs with some promising types in a field of nine. Among them is Clemmie, a full sister to this year's dual Guineas winner Churchill.
