Won the Group 1 Prix de l'Opera at Longchamp (1m2f, very soft) in October 2024; stepped in a hidden drainage hole and pulled up at Haydock this May when returning from a very long absence, but looked as good as ever when third in the Group 2 Duke of Cambridge Stakes at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month, staying on well having been denied a clear run; could play a leading role back up in trip.

4-5 in 2024, when her wins included a Group 3 over C&D (good to firm) in July and the Group 1 Prix de l'Opera at Longchamp (1m2f, very soft) in October; came back from a 594-day absence only to endure a miserable experience at Haydock last month, when putting her foot in a hole and swiftly pulled up; thankfully connections reported her to be fine after that and she commands the utmost respect on this second attempt at a relaunch.

She's won five of her six starts, the latest victory coming in the Group 1 Prix de l'Opera at Longchamp (1m2f, very soft) in October 2024; absent since and she needs to prove she retains her ability, but she probably won't need to be at her very best to come out on top in this line-up.

Poetry in motion up the straight at Ascot where's she registered all three of her Group 1 wins, on a range of ground, crowned by the King George (1m4f, good to firm) last month; unraced here but also shone at Newbury on 2026 reappearance; as today's chief rival on ratings is Minnie Hauk, who finished well adrift of her in the King George, this mare is the one to beat.

Very smart mare who defied a penalty in Group 3 at Newbury (1m4f; beat West Wind Blows by a neck) on seasonal debut, taking record since wearing cheekpieces to 2-3 and running right up to her best; strong record at Ascot features wins in the British Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes for the last two years (soft/good) and an excellent second in the 2025 King George; avoids a Group 1 penalty in this race and has a major chance at the weights.

Highly tried after winning a Newcastle maiden (1m2f, AW) early last year, but twice made the frame in Listed company on turf/AW including at Lingfield (1m5f) in November; may do even better this year and market support on this return from six months off would be significant.

Sole win came at about 1m on the AW; at least arrives here on the back of her best run of the season when close up in a Listed race at Goodwood (1m2f, good), though might have been flattered off steady fractions; handicapper thought otherwise as she's 8lb well in in theory for this.
