Ran well in defeat in Group 3 races on her first two outings last season; out of her depth in the Commonwealth Cup; subsequent stakes race form linked to the smart Sky Majesty was promising, and she ended the campaign with a stylish career-best in winning a 6f Curragh Listed race by 10l; can prosper at this trip. |

C&D winner on debut last year, beating the smart Fairy Godmother convincingly before that form reversed in Group 3 at this track; excellent close third behind Whistlejacket at Navan in April before too keen over C&D in Listed company; more patient ride likely suit and seems to be on a very workable opening mark. |

Rated a modest 72 before a wide-margin Down Royal maiden winner over 7f; probably did too much in first-time blinkers when soundly beaten back in trip in Curragh Listed eight days ago and returns to 1m (blinkers left off); lots to find on ratings but Ballydoyle's sole runner. |
