Made all in back-end 1m nursery at Leopardstown (yielding to soft); unable to land a blow in 7f Guineas Trial at same venue last month, but finished not far off some useful types; sights lowered now after a Listed run at Naas; cheekpieces fitted; sole filly of her age in this race.

Off the mark when making all in back-end 1m nursery at Leopardstown (yielding to soft); unable to land a blow in 7f Guineas Trial back there last month, but finished in close proximity to some useful types and she's bred to stay this far.

No match for Black Caviar Gold in a maiden at Cork; course 1m nursery winner on her final start; stable has stronger candidates.

St Mark's Basilica filly nicely improved on second start when chasing home a clear winner and subsequent Group 3 winner in Cork maiden last month; upped to today's trip at same venue later in month, coming from well back when third; remains open to improvement at this trip and rider's claim a positive.

St Mark's Basilica filly cost 300,000gns as a yearling; both runs over 7f, last time proving no match for a 3l winner at this track; dam stayed well so this step up to 1m can only help.
