Form & Verdict
Finished second in a Yarmouth fillies' maiden (6f, good to firm) that represents strong form on debut in May; stepped up on that when second in the Albany at Royal Ascot, reversing the placings with filly that beat her at Yarmouth in the process; sets a high standard for her rivals to aim at.

Below par in sole start on softer than good; 2yo form otherwise featured a 6f maiden win and two good efforts at Group level, namely second in the Albany at Royal Ascot and fourth in the Rockfel over C&D; could go well.

Soft ground provides an excuse for Salisbury Group 3 flop in latest 6f start; enters the reckoning on her peak effort, namely second in the Albany at Royal Ascot, and this new trip is well worth exploring.

Probably had a bit more in hand than the neck margin suggests in Listed grade at Ayr (6f, soft) to take form figures to 211; leading player on the figures upped further in distance and could well show additional progress to boot.

Second on debut at Leicester (6f, good) before ready win at Beverley (5f, good to firm); this is a tougher test of her credentials but she's well worth a second look with her yard having won this in 2020 and 2022.

Faced a stiff task at Leicester on her debut (6f, good) and she shaped well amidst evident inexperience behind a filly who had finished second at Royal Ascot; can't afford to blow the start again back at 5f but she's open to lots of improvement.

No threat in three 6f runs but she would have finished closer to a subsequent winner at Lingfield (6f, AW) in April had her jockey not had to concentrate on trying to prevent her hanging; found little over C&D since; should fare better now handicapping but new cheekpieces are an unknown.
