7f maiden winner (soft to heavy) who took a big step forward with a convincing win in the Listed Oaks Trial at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm) last month on her sixth start, which was her first run beyond 1m; Ryan Moore was on board last time and rides stablemate Amelia Earhart this afternoon, but she was certainly impressive at Lingfield and is unexposed at the trip; chance.

Wootton Bassett half-sister to a 1m4f Listed winner; won 7f maiden at the Curragh before below-form favourite in a 1m Group 3 later in October; fifth of ten in another 1m Group 3 there on reappearance was her best form and suggested she's a middle-distance filly; those last three runs were in the mud, which is most unlikely here, but another step forward otherwise looks assured; Ryan Moore rides her for the first time.

Not a bad debut first effort when fifth of nine at Punchestown; can be rated a likely future winner on her Cork run three weeks ago, when she split two Ballydoyle-trained fillies; the third franked the form with a nursery win at Leopardstown on Saturday; cheekpieces fitted; faces a tough task against winners.
