Chantilly Listed winner (1m1f, heavy) last October; staying-on third when 50-1 in the Oaks at Epsom (1m4f, good to soft) this May but that's easily her best show this term and hanging so badly right in the Irish Oaks on latest start was off-putting.

Won two out of four starts as 2yo, notably a Listed race at Chantilly (1m1f, heavy) by 5l in October; not quite at that level back in France this term for a Group 3 (10.5f, very soft) or Group 2 (1m2f, soft) which suggests that she will find this very tough, even if her stamina can be stretched.

Made her name as a handicapper but popped up at 22-1 in a Group 3 at Ascot (1m, good) in July and was unlucky not to finish closer in America last time (1m Grade 3m, firm); however, whether she's up to this class is debatable, and rain could scupper things anyway (unraced on anything easier than good).

Sole filly in this field and she was a soundly beaten sixth of nine on last month's debut at Haydock (7f, good); however, she was sent off the 9-4 favourite and the dam's side of her pedigree suggests today's longer trip will be a much better fit; interesting on her second start.
