Somewhat underwhelming at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) last time but prior to that she caught the eye when a green fifth on debut at Goodwood (6f, good), and there's potential in her pedigree; not written off.

Made all in Newbury maiden (6f, good) last month on third run and her subsequent nursery debut fourth at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) can be upgraded as she fared best of the four in the near-side group; Miss Fascinator, who was second home from the near-side group, bolted up at Newmarket on Saturday; half-sister to yard's two-time York Listed winner Nymphadora; interesting.
