Perhaps a shade disappointing when upped to 7f for soft-ground Listed race on final 2yo start but won Hamilton maiden (6f, soft) in September and the form of her close second at Goodwood (6f, good) in August reads well; still has untapped potential over this trip and beyond; interesting.

Went close at Goodwood (6f, good) on second start and went one better in a maiden at Hamilton (6f, soft) on latest, albeit by a head at 4-6; can still do better (including with this trip) and needs a close look.
