Fancy Blue will face six rivals in her bid for back-to-back Group 1 wins in Thursday's Nassau Stakes.

Donnacha O'Brien's first classic winner will have the services of Ryan Moore and is at the head of the market after her performance to win the Prix de Diane in Chantilly last month.

Among her rivals on Thursday is last year's winner Deirdre. The Japanese mare swooped late under Oisin Murphy 12 months ago, and the Kerry jockey will team up with Mitsuru Hashida’s charge once again as she tries to step up on her recent fifth in the Eclipse at Sandown.

Magic Wand wasn't too far away from Enable when last seen finishing fourth in the Eclipse and she will be partnered by Frankie Dettori.

Jessica Harrington further strengthens the Irish challenge with One Voice, winner of the Blue Wind Stakes but only fifth in Group 2 company last time. She is the mount of Tom Marquand.

Nazeef is the top home-trained contender for John Gosden – and she arrives fresh from her maiden Group 1 victory in the Falmouth Stakes at Newmarket’s July meeting. However, she will be racing beyond a mile for the first time on the Downs.

Sir Michael Stoute’s Queen Power and Lavender’s Blue from Amanda Perrett’s yard complete the line-up, with only French raider Tawkeel withdrawn at the final declaration stage.
