Group three winner Tamfana will attempt to land Group One glory win on Saturday with David Menuisier’s star filly featuring amongst the 11 confirmations for the Virgin Bet Sun Chariot Stakes at Newmarket's Rowley Mile.

Many will be relishing a possible first-ever clash between the John and Thady Gosden-trained pair of Inspiral and Nashwa in the Rowley Mile contest, but Menuisier’s filly is a proven performer herself at the highest level and will arrive on the back of a confidence-boosting success at Sandown.

She advertised both her class and suitability to compete back down at a mile when winning the Group Three Atalanta Stakes in late August and fresh from saddling Sirona to win in stakes company at HQ, the Sussex-based Frenchman is excited to run his talented daughter of Soldier Hollow.

Trainer is hopeful of Group 1 success

Menuisier said: “Hopefully Sirona winning on Friday will prove a dress rehearsal!

“Tamfana is in great form, hopefully we have some luck, she deserves to win a Group One. The owners need a Group One and so does the trainer!

“She was good at Sandown and has been placed in three Group Ones before that.

“It’s been one of those seasons, but let’s hope somebody can hear us up there.”

A strong field of fillies could line up

As well as defending champion Inspiral, her returning stablemate Nashwa and fellow Gosden fillies Running Lion and Friendly Soul the race could also feature Roger Varian’s 1000 Guineas heroine Elmalka Rogue Millennium Darnation See The Fire and Aidan O’Brien’s pair of Wingspan and Ylang Ylang
