Six furlong specialist Sandrine will be thrown in the deep end over a mile by trainer Andrew Balding in the CIPQO 1000 Guineas on May 1.

A winner last term in the Group 3 Albany Stakes at Ascot and the Group 2 Duchess of Cambridge Stakes at Newmarket, Balding is going straight for the Classic with his three-year-old at HQ.
Balding has options with the Bobby's Kitten filly as she can just return to shorter distances if not getting the Guineas trip and the Kingsclere trainer rates the Kirsten Rausing owned Sandrine as a "very smart sprinter".
"She's great. She had a lovely winter holiday back at (the owner's) Lanwades Stud and came back in magnificent condition," he told Sky Sports Racing.
"She's really done well over the winter and we're hopeful she might stay a mile. We'll find that out in the Guineas. If she doesn't, she'll be a very smart sprinter but she's a horse we're really looking forward to this year."
Balding has various possibilities with his three-year-old males with Berkshire Shadow holding an entry for the 2000 Guineas on April 30 at Newmarket.
Imperial Fighter and Hoo Ly Mal will prove their mettle in Classic trials before the event.
"Berkshire Shadow won the Coventry Stakes last year and ran a very good race at Goodwood, giving weight to Angel Bleu on soft ground which wasn't ideal for us. That horse subsequently won two Group Ones on soft ground so I think that's pretty good form," said Balding.
"Then, bar a blip in the Gimcrack, I thought he ran a good race from a moderate draw in the Dewhurst and hit the line well. He'll go straight for the Guineas and would have an outside chance.
"Imperial Fighter and Hoo Ly Mal have a similar level of form and are two nice colts. Whether they are up to Classic standard, we'll find out. Hopefully, they will take in a trial and then we'll see where we are."
Balding made a good fist of the Flat Trainers' Championship last season but was beaten by Charlie Appleby.
