Half-sister to Group 1 winner Cursory Glance and fetched 680,000gns as a yearling; started slowly but made eyecatching late headway to finish fourth at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last December in a race that's worked out well; interesting.

J: Kieran Shoemark

Listed winner at Newmarket (1m4f, soft) last August followed by a Group 3 second on the other track there (1m4f, good to firm); made a respectable return in the Lancashire Oaks at Haydock this July, before a lesser show at Deauville (1m4f, soft) in another Group 2; below form both starts in cheekpieces, including last time; needs a career best but 1m6f is well worth a go if she's back on song.
