Form & Verdict
No runner in this has had more than her six starts, so she should be more exposed, but her close third of nine when 25-1 for a Listed race at Pontefract (1m, good to soft) last time was a much improved display; that was also her first run on softer than good and it's among the best form in this.

Won maiden at Galway (7f, soft) in September on third start; improved on that when a close third in Group 3 at the Curragh (7f, yielding to soft) 19 days later and the runner-up was a Group 1 second next time; this longer trip should suit very well, so there's lots to like.

Hasn't added to 2yo Galway maiden win but career-best when touched off in Listed contest at same venue in August in first-time visor; two runs since not nearly as good, not seeming to get home in heavy ground latest; AW debut and major chance on her best form although hasn't always looked the strongest of finishers.

Seems versatile ground-wise; notable effort at Meydan in January, almost collaring subsequent 1,000 Guineas winner Mawj; creditable third to Magical Sunset at Goodwood most recently, despite perhaps not having the ideal track position; appears to have a good prize in her.

Second to subsequent 1,000 Guineas winner Mawj at Meydan (7f, soft) in January and, after finishing well beaten in the Newmarket Classic, she was a fair third in the German Guineas (1m, good to firm); not obviously well treated off top weight but represents powerful yard and is not ruled out.

575,000euros yearling buy with good pedigree; 11-2 for a nine-runner maiden at Nottingham (1m, good) one month ago and she won that second start in clearcut style after leading 1f out, despite hanging left; this race demands a good deal more but she brings clear potential.

Reportedly lost her action on the soft ground when pulled up in the Cheshire Oaks (1m3f) on reappearance; returned to form when fifth of 11 in Listed race at Goodwood (1m2f, good) 16 days later but overdid it up front when tailed off in 1m4f handicap at Royal Ascot (40-1); unfair to judge her on that latest run but she needs overall improvement.
