Travelled strongly but held back by her inexperience off the bridle when third of five in a Newbury conditions event run in a downpour 13 days ago (7f, soft); can leave that effort behind her and she's of interest at this level.

7f fillies' novice winner (Polytrack); put some lesser efforts behind her when striking in a handicap for the first time at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta; first-time cheekpieces) latest; looked to have better to come there and should be a big player despite a 5lb rise.

40,000euros yearling; half-sister to winners Bing Bang Bong (6f-1m; RPR 105), Han Solo Berger (5f-7f; 95) and Dragon Beat (5f, AW; 72); stable's newcomers usually better for a run but she makes appeal on paper and is starting out at a realistic level.

J: Pierre-Louis Jamin

Her second win last year came over C&D (good to soft); career-best form when second at Musselburgh (1m6f, soft) on reappearance, meeting trouble in running, but she could not lay a glove on the principals when returned to 1m4f at Ripon (good) three weeks later; return to 1m6f will presumably help and might offset good ground if it dries out; one to consider.

Close second in this race (good) on her 2025 reappearance and went on to score twice at about 1m6f later in the year; returned with a career-best second of 13 at Musselburgh (1m6f, soft) three weeks ago, arguably deserving extra credit considering she met a bit of trouble; successful on her two other visits to Ripon; reasons to be positive.

Not the most consistent but won twice last season, latterly in clearcut fashion with a late bid at Goodwood (1m6f, good to soft) in September despite suffering trouble in running; 6lb higher today but she went close on last year's return and her yard is among the winners on AW; on the shortlist.
