Unraced as 2yo; off the mark on third start, a 6f novice on Lingfield turf, and things didn't go his way in two handicaps after; retains potential and refitting the hood is likely to help; ran green over 5f on Wolverhampton debut but of interest back on Tapeta despite the layoff.

Sharply bred and kept to 6f thus far; always prominent en route to prevailing in a narrow three-way finish at Newmarket (good to firm) four weeks ago, for which she went up 3lb; kicked off in handicaps off a low mark for one with her pedigree and this extra furlong could be within range.

Two promising runs, shaping well on slow ground on Newbury debut (7f) and showing better form when third of seven at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) despite getting loose beforehand (did so again at Nottingham last week and was withdrawn); free-going filly who should be fine dropped back to 5f; hood sported thus far is now left off.

Two promising runs this season, shaping well on slow ground on debut (7f) and showing better form when third of seven at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) last month in a race that looks solid; got loose beforehand on that latest occasion, so the run can probably be upgraded a touch; this free-going filly should be quick enough for 5f and she's still capable of better.

Down the field in sole 2yo start but she's shown promise in her three runs this year; never got involved when fifth behind Moondial on her handicap debut at Epsom (7f, good) last month but she missed the break and was beaten only 2l in the end; still has potential for top yard and she's in the mix.

Form & Verdict
Ex-Irish filly; below-par favourite in fast-ground maiden on second run for new yard, taking record to 0-9, and best form remains on softer than good; easily the most exposed contender and the forecast surface isn't ideal but her peak RPRs set a fairly useful standard; tongue-tie applied.
