John and Thady Gosden’s Inspiral is the standout name among 11 in Friday’s Tattersalls Falmouth Stakes at Newmarket.
So impressive in maintaining her unbeaten record in the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot on her seasonal return, the Cheveley Park Stud-owned filly will be facing older horses for the first time.
She has been ridden by Frankie Dettori in all but one of her five career starts, but with the jockey and the Gosden team currently on a “sabbatical” from their partnership, riding plans are unclear.
One big name missing from the confirmations was Dermot Weld’s Homeless Songs, who has not been seen since her impressive display in the Irish 1,000 Guineas.
Other three-year-olds still in contention include 1000 Guineas runner up Prosperous Voyage, Sandrine and Aidan O’Brien’s Concert Hall, Toy and Tenebrism.

Leading the older horses is Andrew Balding’s Alcohol Free, who has been tried over a variety of trips.
She ran in the Juddmonte International over 10 furlongs last summer, yet last time out ran in the Platinum Jubilee over six furlongs. She did, though, win the Sussex Stakes last season.
