Form & Verdict

Won Doncaster maiden (1m, soft) last October on debut, nosing ahead final strides; 6-1, tailed off in Group 3 at Newbury (7f, soft) in April; bit speculative after that, for all that she is bred to stay 1m2f, probably has very different ground and represents yard with a very strong record in this race.

Form & Verdict

Entered in Irish Guineas and the Oaks; dam useful 1m4f-1m6f winner; won debut and showed improved form in defeat in her three subsequent starts; second in Group 2 at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) and in the Group 1 Fillies' Mile at Newmarket (good); the last-named form (made most, front two drew clear) is the best in this field.

Form & Verdict

Oaks and Ribblesdale entry; dam 1m2f and 1m4f (Listed) winner from family her connections have enjoyed a lot of success with; finished strongly when short-headed by Sea Of Roses at Doncaster (1m, soft) on sole 2yo start; 8-11, no fuss going one better in maiden at Newmarket (1m2f, good) 12 days ago; 1m4f will suit in due course and she's the Oaks second favourite.
