Down the field in three maidens in Ireland but she wasn't beaten that far when stepping up to 7f at Limerick (good firm) 16 days ago; needs a betting check for a stable with a good strike-rate in Britain.

Raced ten times as a 2yo, winning three; ran away with a Group 3 at Saint-Cloud (10.5f, heavy) on reappearance, but performed moderately at Longchamp (1m2f, soft) next time and front-running did not work out when 40-1 in the Oaks at Epsom (1m4f, good to soft); off 110 days and has lots to prove if she's on firmer than good; others look more solid.

Raced ten times as a 2yo, winning a maiden and two handicaps; ran away with a Group 3 at Saint-Cloud (10.5f, heavy) on reappearance, when it looked as if she would have no problem going further, but she needs to bounce back from a modest show in Group 2 at Longchamp (1m2f, soft) 19 days ago.

J: Brandon Wilkie

Made it three wins from her last four starts when landing Thirsk nursery (1m, good) under Brandon Wilkie a fortnight ago; the runner-up has franked that latest form and this filly has also won on soft ground; has a progressive profile and she's respected up 6lb for last time.

Form & Verdict
Runner-up over 6f the last twice, latterly finding the line coming a couple of strides too soon for his strong finish in the Rous seller at York (good to firm); 7f will suit and he's the one to beat with further improvement likely.

Added to his yard's good record in 2yo sellers this year when collaring the reopposing Mimi Kakushi on her 7f Redcar debut (good) last Friday; 6lb worse off at the weights (excluding jockey claims) with George Boughey's filly but she's open to improvement.
