Looked set for second until weakening late on when fourth on her 8.6f Wolverhampton debut 18 days ago; that was promising and she should make a bold bid with improvement likely down at 7f.

Found a weak maiden against her own sex when winning on Polytrack in February; offered a bit more last time but will need to settle better on this third quick run, upped from 7f.

Thrice-raced filly who was a disappointing favourite on turf three days ago when back from a break; however, may well rebound, having gained her maiden win over C&D the time before.

This daughter of Magna Grecia cost 45,000euros as a yearling and is bred for the job, being a half-sister to four winners, including useful pair Almania (7f 2yo/9.5f; RPR 103) and Benacre (7f 2yo; 98); dam 7f Group 3 winner and also made a winning debut on AW; starts out in an ordinary-looking race and would firmly enter calculations if the betting vibes are strong.

Form & Verdict
Faded to finish a well-held seventh of ten on her 7f Newmarket debut on heavy ground in November but it's possible she simply failed to cope with the testing conditions as the fact she went off at 4-1 (and shorter than her stablemate who won the race) suggests she'd been giving the right signals at home; could prove a different proposition this time.

J: Oisin Orr

Left all previous form behind when an emphatic winner over C&D (soft; made all) in April and her odds-on failure at Doncaster came the following week; had a break since and probably still on a fair mark; fast ground would be a first for her.

Took a marked step forward from her previous efforts (behind Solar Bentley at Wolverhampton) when making all to score emphatically at Beverley (1m2f, soft) last week; is 4lb well-in under her 6lb penalty, so likely to take some stopping if in the same mood.
