Form & Verdict
600,000euros yearling by Night Of Thunder; 11-8 favourite for six-runner novice at Haydock (7f, good) five weeks ago, coming only fourth but very green and showing strong signs she was getting the hang of things late on; holds entries in an Irish Group 2 this month and in the Group 1 Moyglare in September; could be a big improver.

Newmarket form comprises a maiden win on the July course and third-place finish, just over 4l behind Precise, in the Group 1 Fillies' Mile; bagged Group 3 honours at Longchamp (1m, good) on reappearance, collaring a sitting duck (clear leader who tired) and strong at the finish; has evidently trained on well and her RPRs continue on an upward trajectory.

Ran well in Curragh Group 2 most recently but was just over 4l behind Composing, who has let down the form since; in front of Legacy Link when winning on the July course (1m) but that rival lacked experience.

Has achieved the least of these but she cost 600,000euros as a yearling and probably accounted for a good filly when the pair were clear at Newmarket (1m, good to firm); has the Moyglare entry (as do the remainder) and she's not to be underestimated.

Quality 2yo form on all sorts of ground, as her seconds where behind smart horses and she wasn't beaten too far in a French Group 3; she did have the run of things up front on her Newmarket return (1m maiden, good) but was still unable to contain the less exposed So Regal; a 6lb pull with the winner could make it interesting.

Registered her second-place finishes behind useful sorts who subsequently ran well in the Fillies' Mile, then posted a good effort on bare figures in French Group 3 (started favourite; again over 1m) on final 2yo run; the form pick.

Disappointing 6-4 favourite at Newmarket (good to firm) in May; 14-1 and tongue tied when next seen on the other Newmarket course (1m, good to firm) four weeks ago and performed vastly better in second of eight, travelling much more smoothly than Legacy Link and beating her 4l; Group 1 Fillies' Mile entry who brings clearly the best form today.

Easy win at Haydock (1m, good) last September on her second start and rallied for fourth of ten in the Group 1 Fillies' Mile at Newmarket (good) in October, the form of which has worked out very well; her dam (a sister to Frankel) was a 1m4f winner and this step up in trip should be right up her street; leading claims for top yard that has won this seven times since 2011.

Superbly bred, being by Dubawi out of a 1m4f-winning sister to Frankel; duly justified favouritism in comfortable fashion at Haydock (1m, good) to build on her Newmarket effort behind Evolutionist; interesting contender, being open to any amount of further improvement.

Fair form on all three starts, best form on soft ground on second occasion; latest was her closest finish, though, when making most in a 1m3f maiden at Kempton (AW) and that performance suggests she will stay 1m4f; needs to find extra to get off the mark on this handicap debut.

Unable to pose a serious threat when fourth over 1m on turf last August/September on her first two starts; however, her dam was a Group 2 winner (1m) and she's by Camelot, so this step up in trip could prompt improvement on her reappearance; yard going well and she's one to consider.
