Four-time Group One winner Misty For Me features among 13 confirmations for the G1 Falmouth Stakes at Newmarket on Friday.
The daughter of Galileo won twice at the highest level as a juvenile and has enjoyed a spectacular year so far, landing the Irish 1000 Guineas before beating top-class older mare Midday in the Pretty Polly Stakes.
Sir Henry Cecil has entered Timepiece, who recorded a confidence boosting win in a Warwick Listed race on her latest start, while Richard Hannon's Memory could bid to repair her reputation after two disappointing displays.
John Gosden could be represented by both Joviality and Maqaasid, with Lily Of The Valley and Sahpresa possibles to travel from France. Antara, First City, I'm A Dreamer, River Jetez, Elshabakiya and Masaya complete the potential line-up.
Rod Collet's Sahpresa is set to bid for a third Group One win at Newmarket, having landed the Sun Chariot in 2009 and 2010.
The six-year-old looked as good as ever when securing a Group Three prize at Longchamp on her seasonal reappearance a month ago.
The trainer said: "Sahpresa is coming over to Newmarket and she is very well at the moment. I was very pleased with her victory at Longchamp because she was very impressive that day and has improved since that run.
"She has won twice on the Rowley Mile but she will be my first runner on the July Course, so it's a new experience for both of us.
"Sahpresa has won on a variety of ground and the only going she hates is heavy, so I am sure she will have no concerns at Newmarket.
"It is going to be an interesting race, but Sahpresa looks very well and I am hopeful she can win another Group One.
