Very consistent level of form through the summer at 7f/1m on decent ground, notably close third in Curragh handicap and latest two in fillies' maidens at same venue, and when chasing all-the-way winner throughout at Naas when beaten 0.5l; seems sure to run her race but may need more to play a leading role.

Promise in all three maidens over 7f; decent third of 20 on handicap debut off a mark of 75 here last month (1m, good), not quite getting home; the drop back to 7f should suit on that evidence, and should be in the mix again returned to maiden company.

Form & Verdict
Best run at two came when beaten 4.5l into fifth by Diamond Necklace in Ingabelle Stakes (7f, good), albeit flattered by proximity to winner; beaten 6.25l into third in maiden at Galway in October on soft ground; used as pacemaker in Group 1 company last twice; obviously far calmer waters here, and her two-year-old form makes her the one to beat.

She's shown ability but nothing like enough to suggest she'll be a contender today; 0-6 and likely to be a pacemaker for her stablemate Precise.

Fourth, then sixth in maidens at Leopardstown on her first two runs (1m/7f, good) before creditable fifth behind top-class stablemate Diamond Necklace in a 7f Listed race there, only a neck behind subsequent winner Killashee Warrior; employed as pacemaker in the Prix Marcel Boussac; should be good enough here.

Has never reached the first three and lacks a recent run; fair fourth at Roscommon in May in a first-time tongue-tie; mid-field at the Curragh before a break; tongue-tie left off.

A glimmer of promise in two AW starts last year, out of her depth in a Naas maiden; chance is not obvious, unless tongue-tie makes a big difference.
