Form & Verdict
Smart filly at 2, winning a Group 2 before a narrow defeat in Group 1 company; has shown she retains all her ability this term, albeit no match for the likes of Homeless Songs in the Irish 1,000 Guineas; can bounce back from a blip in the Belmont Oaks last time (may not have stayed) and back in calmer waters on home soil.

Form & Verdict
Closely matched with Agartha on their Group 3 form in May; was then a creditable sixth (beaten roughly 7l) in the Coronation Stakes; however, was turned over at long odds on in a Dundalk maiden last month when worried out of it by the re-opposing Illuminazione and faces a much sterner test here.
