Won her only 2yo start and kicked off 2023 with a close call in the Group 3 Fred Darling at Newbury (7f, soft) in April; the 1,000 Guineas proved far too tough but she was straight back to form when second in the German version (1m, good to firm); major player.

33-1 when beaten about 10l in the Sandringham Handicap at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) and although she could conceivably have finished first in her far-side group had she not been badly hampered just inside the final 2f, Magical Sunset (first on that side) gave her 9lb; needs a hefty step forward.

Has raced mostly in Group and Listed races this year but she should have a future in handicaps, having done well to finish as close as she did on the unfavoured side, after serious interference, in the Sandringham at the Royal meeting (1m, good to firm); has since run well in Listed company (first-time tongue-tie latest, retained) and well worth considering.

Consistent filly who's done nothing wrong this season, backing up her Epsom Group 3 win with a solid effort in Group 2 at Royal Ascot in first-time headgear; a penalty leaves her a bit to find but she's fine round easy, turning courses (can lug left) and should give her running as usual dropped from 1m and switched to blinkers.
