5-7 in 2yo season, a campaign that culminated with Group 3 win at Chantilly (7f, very soft); the drop back in trip could be a positive but she's been well beaten on both starts this season, most recently in the French 1,000 Guineas; carries a 5lb penalty and a major turnaround is needed.

T: K R Burke

Scopey filly who has got on a roll and wasn't overly pressed to complete her four-timer when making most in a nursery at the St Leger meeting over Doncaster's extended 6f (good to soft; has won on good to firm); gets in here off an advantageous weight having fetched 12,000gns as a yearling; clear claims.

Acts on good to firm and good to soft; justified favouritism in Newmarket nursery (7f) most recently, taking form figures to 4111; progressing well and has leading claims.

Form & Verdict
Easily made all at Brighton (6f, good) in May on third start then mid-division in the Albany at Royal Ascot; fourth of six on nursery debut at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) last time; the return to better ground may help but it's hard to be confident about her claims following that latest run.

Two wins from eight starts, latterly in a nursery here (7f, good to soft; unraced on worse) last month when ridden by 7lb claimer; always-prominent third of ten in Group 3 at Newmarket (7f, good; 7-1) 15 days ago confirms that she has a leading chance in this field on form.

J: Ashley Lewis

T: Tom Dascombe

Easily made all at Brighton (6f, good) in May on third start then mid-division in the Group 3 Albany at Royal Ascot; she weakened on handicap debut at Doncaster (good to soft) in July but saw it out better on good to firm when second of six at Newmarket (also 7f) last time; probably wants the ground to dry out.

Form & Verdict
Got off the mark at Chepstow (7f, good) last month on second nursery start; it's possible she'll continue to improve but she had just a nose to spare in that Class 6 contest, and is back in tougher company in this Class 3.

Made it 2-4 in nurseries when holding off a strong finisher at Chester (7f, good to soft) two weeks ago; 3lb higher at this new trip but she still has potential and is out of a half-sister to a 1m2f winner; key player.
