Losing run up to 15 but she has run some fine races in that period, not least when beaten less than a length into third of six in the Group 2 Celebration Mile at Goodwood (1m, good to firm) last August (entered again this year); respected on these terms and Jamie Spencer knows her well; still holds a Sussex Stakes entry.

Smart hold-up mare who sometimes hits traffic; matched previous best when second in a Newmarket handicap on her April return and latest fourth of six behind Blue Bolt in Goodwood Listed event (also 1m, good) was a solid effort; stall 1 doesn't make life easy but it wouldn't be a huge shock to see her appear on the scene late if able to pick her way through.

Progressive mare who scored for the eighth time when beating 18-runner field at Newmarket (7f, good) at last month's Craven meeting; might need some luck in running if the field gravitates to the stands' side but thoroughly deserves this first crack at a Pattern race, with the ceiling of her ability probably yet to be reached.
