9st 2lb

J: David Probert

T: Andrew Balding

Lightly raced 4yo; went close in three handicaps in May/June, pulling well clear with the winner when beaten a neck in the 24-runner Kensington Palace Stakes at the Royal meeting here (1m, good to firm; also acts on soft) on latest; drops back to 7f for the first time since debut and shapes as if that may suit her; retains untapped potential and looks a leading contender.

J: Mickael Barzalona

T: Andrew Balding

Lightly raced filly for leading connections; off for 442 days before winning a 1m novice on Newcastle's AW; failed to feature in a muddling race there next time but back on the up when placed in turf handicaps last twice, latest over 1m at Newmarket (good) in a race which has worked out; strong traveller who could be suited by this big-field scenario.
