Two Listed wins at about 5f - at York (good to firm) as 2yo and Chantilly (heavy) on comeback - but she needs to recapture form now back at 6f and, even if she does, others have stronger form at the trip.

Two Listed wins, over 5f as 2yo (good to firm) and on reappearance at Chantilly (extended 5f, heavy); best effort since the latter when just losing out in 5f handicap at Glorious Goodwood but she ran flat behind Star Of Lady M at York next time which tempers enthusiasm.

Behind both Porta Fortuna and Soprano in the Albany and it was an uncompetitive Group 2 that she won at the July meeting (6f, good); the odds-on second wasn't seen to best effect and could finish only sixth in the Lowther next time; probably playing for the places.

Most impressive at Newmarket (5f, good to soft); below that level in a York 5f Listed race (in which the horse she hammered first time out came second) when she was slowly away on good to firm and the leaders never came back; it's tempting to give her another chance to fulfil the promise of her debut win; 6f should be fine.
