Deep Impact half-sister to 5f-6f winner Provocateuse (RPR 102), from good-class family; weak in market and hooded when making pleasing debut in end of season Leopardstown 2yo maiden, running a bit in snatches but showing enough speed when second over 7f (soft); type to improve at 3 and likely major player here.
