Seven of her eight runs have been on good ground; has some ups and downs in her profile but she's been generally progressive and hit a personal best when landing a Group 2 at the Curragh (1m, good) on return last month; has a penalty for that success but she found plenty after travelling strongly into the race and had two of today's rivals behind her; still unexposed at this trip and she's an interesting contender.

0-9 since her two wins in August 2023 but currently in a consistent vein of form; raced mainly at sprint distances but ran respectably over 7f at Leicester (heavy) most recently and again has frame possibilities.

Better in 6f races when narrowly prevailing on Naas debut; playing catch-up at Curragh but not sure that was major excuse; good bit more needed for champion trainer but can't discount.
