Didn't see out her race after racing too freely at Kempton (1m) eight days but went very close over that C&D on debut in January and still has plenty of scope to progress from that performance.

Out of an unraced half-sister to multiple Group 1 winner Giant's Causeway and bettered her debut effort when very respectable fifth at Kempton (1m) in November; that form arguably sets the standard here and there should be a fair bit more to come from her this year; sports first-time cheekpieces.

Showed clear promise in novice/maiden events on AW but she made a low-key start in handicaps when a remote fifth of six at Nottingham (1m2f) last month; the soft ground may have been an issue but she's been well held in both her turf runs so far and has some questions to answer.
