Form & Verdict
825,000gns sister to Group 2 winner Arizona; has finished both her races on the front foot, especially at Newmarket last time (1m, good to soft; 20-1) after being slowly away and then outpaced; that effort looks all the better now with Godolphin's winner going close in Listed company at York.

Solid performance in Haydock handicap (1m2f, soft) last month on second start for new stable, beating Doha who gave the form a big boost when winning at Royal Ascot on Wednesday; has won on good to firm; may be capable of further progress, provided she stays this new trip.

Placed in two of her three novice runs last season and she was only 2l away on handicap debut at Newmarket (1m, good; 14-1) when perhaps in need of the race (shaped as though that was the case); others in here may have greater potential but she has each-way claims.

Winning debut on Chelmsford's AW last August; stepped up on that form when third of 11 in 1m Goodwood novice (good to firm) on reappearance 15 days ago, travelling well in the lead for a long way; lacks experience for a race of this nature, and the widest stall won't make life any easier, but she stands out as an unexposed sort in this line-up.

Form & Verdict
Can pick holes in the form of her debut win at Kempton (1m) and it was always going to be extremely tough in the 1,000 Guineas, finishing 17th; this should reveal more about her future prospects but she's not overly appealing with a penalty; now hooded.
