Has enjoyed mixed fortunes since winning a Listed contest at York (5f, good) in May, her best subsequent effort when beaten a neck in the Group 3 Princess Margaret at Ascot (6f, good to firm) in July; well held in the Lowther and vulnerable to an improver, though stablemate Juniper Berries had the same number of runs before taking this last year.

Early foal who hails from a decent family of sprinters but went for just £1,000 as a yearling; yard still to really get rolling with 2yos this spring and doesn't have a great record with them here but she's one of the more interesting newcomers.
