Behind both Porta Fortuna and Soprano in the Albany and it was an uncompetitive Group 2 that she won at the July meeting (6f, good); the odds-on second wasn't seen to best effect and could finish only sixth in the Lowther next time; probably playing for the places.

took keen hold, disputing third, pressed leaders 2f out, carried right over 1f out, soon ridden to lead, edged left inside final furlong, kept on well

Most impressive at Newmarket (5f, good to soft); below that level in a York 5f Listed race (in which the horse she hammered first time out came second) when she was slowly away on good to firm and the leaders never came back; it's tempting to give her another chance to fulfil the promise of her debut win; 6f should be fine.

3-21, those wins coming over 5f, 6f, and 7f; placed on return from a three-and-a-half month absence at Newmarket (1m, good to soft; 6-1) on penultimate start but less productive next time (7f); easing mark coupled with Alec Voikhansky's 3lb claim helpful.

Reportedly improved for the faster ground when winning a 5f novice at Yarmouth last summer (trained by William Jarvis); ran well for second in a soft-ground nursery at Leicester in August and finished lame when disappointing the following month; new yard might coax more out of her this season but such progress is a requirement.
