Juvenile Group 1 winner Inspiral (GB) (Frankel {GB}) will lock horns with 11 rivals in the G1 Coronation S. at Royal Ascot on Friday. Although the Cheveley Park homebred will face the winners of the G1 1000 Guineas in Cachet (Ire) (Aclaim {Ire}) and Mangoustine (Fr) (Dark Angel {Ire}), victress of the French equivalent, G1 Irish 1000 Guineas heroine Homeless Songs (Ire) (Frankel {GB}) will stay home. Connections' concerns over the quick ground ended her participation in the marquee event.
Besides the trio of European Group 1 winners, American runners Spendarella (Karakontie {Jpn}), who is undefeated and a dual graded winner, and GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf heroine Pizza Bianca (Fastnet Rock {Aus}) will take part. Other signed on are the G1 Moyglare Stud S. winner Discoveries (Ire) (Mastercraftsman {Ire}), 1000 Guineas runner-up Prosperous Voyage (Ire) (Zoffany {Ire}), group winner and G1 Cheveley Park S. third Sandrine (GB) (Bobby's Kitten) and Cheveley Park scorer Tenebrism (Caravaggio), among others.
