Form & Verdict

Did well to score so comfortably on debut, beating a Dermot Weld-trained favourite with previous experience in a 7f maiden at Naas; that was only 13 days ago and this represents a quick rise in class, but she could prove equal to the challenge; smart prospect for a small but respected yard.

Form & Verdict

By Galileo out of dual Nunthorpe winner Mecca's Angel; shaped encouragingly on debut when a close third at this venue; ran too freely and finished down the field when 5-1 chance in the Chesham at Royal Ascot 16 days later; much more professional in a maiden here 16 days ago, dominating all the way and beating Apricot Ice with plenty to spare.

A debut 6f winner at the Curragh before finishing seventh in the Chesham and fourth in the 7f Group 3 Silver Flash at this venue; the value of that form was endorsed when the second and third horses took first and fourth respectively in the Group 2 Debutante Stakes at the Curragh; readily landed the odds at Roscommon just under three weeks ago.
