By Wootton Bassett out of a 9.5f Listed winner who's sister to Irish Guineas winner Roderic O'Connor; won a maiden at Cork (1m, yielding) last September and probably improved again when front-running third of seven in Group 3 at Navan (1m2f, good to yielding) two weeks ago; top trainer so often gets these 3yo middle-distance fillies to improve.

Frankel filly has tons of experience compared to these rivals, notably chasing home smart types both here and at the Curragh and best effort yet when tried in cheekpieces in Group 3 Weld Park Stakes at former venue last month, only losing second final strides under a prominent ride on soft; the one to beat.

Frankel filly remains a maiden after five starts; placed in maidens at Leopardstown (1m, good) in July and over this C&D in August; well held by Kensington Lane in a 7f Gowran maiden on latest; looks to be up against it on all known form but could improve for softer ground.

Winner and Group 3-placed over 1m on heavy in the autumn; forget about her run at Navan a fortnight ago (found to be showing signs of coming into season), but what was significant was that Moore picked her over 10lb higher-rated stablemate (who, admittedly, also ran poorly); pedigree implies she can improve at this trip and entered in both Oaks.

Failed to do herself justice at this venue on debut after meeting some trouble in running; put that behind her when landing the odds in a 1m contest at Gowran a month ago; faces much steeper opposition now, but she handled testing conditions, gets the trip and can win more races as she matures.
