260,000gns half-sister to five winners including Nayef Road (7f-2m including 2yo/Group 3; RPR 116); finished seventh of 11 on Kempton debut (6f, AW) last month but she didn't get the best of runs and was beaten less than 4l; should know more this time and she's open to progress upped in trip.

Won twice for Ollie Sangster at two, including a 7f Listed race at Sandown; began and ended last season with good runs in defeat (in the Nell Gwyn and a Listed contest at Saint-Cloud); sprang a surprise when beating stablemate Princess Child in a C&D Group 3 event on Irish debut; further progress is feasible.

Two-time winner for Ollie Sangster in Britain, including Listed Star Stakes at Sandown in July 2024; last seen 145 days ago finishing 2.5l second to Moon Cloud in Listed mile contest at Saint-Cloud; trainer does very well with recruits, particularly fillies; acts on soft; interesting contender.

T: Ollie Sangster

Won a 7f Listed race here last season which remains her career-best form on Topspeed/RPR figures; kicked off this campaign with a second in the Group 3 Nell Gwyn (good to soft) and after flying too high in the French 1,000 Guineas she met with some serious interference in an Irish Group 3 17 days ago; ground this slow will be a first and one or two others appeal more.

Form & Verdict
Cost 210,000gns as a yearling and is out of a 1m2f Listed winner; held as favourite on her Nottingham debut (6f, good to soft; 100-30) two weeks ago but she ran green before finishing well for a close fourth; that was an eyecatching effort and she looks interesting on this step up in trip.

Record of 4232 in novice/maiden events on turf and again ran well when runner-up on handicap debut at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) last October; shaped on that latest outing as though the drop back in trip may be a positive and this unexposed 4yo could have a big part to play on her reappearance.

210,000gns yearling; record of 4232 in novice/maiden events and she finished a clear second behind a subsequent winner at Ripon (1m, good) in July; out of a 1m2f Listed winner and she's an interesting contender now upped to this trip on handicap debut.

Haydock second last summer reads well and she was entitled to have needed her AW comeback after ten months off; that was a solid effort considering she was buzzy and this look the ideal opening (taken out of a handicap last month thanks to fast ground).

Form & Verdict
Improved with each of her three runs for Dominic Ffrench Davis, most recently when front-running second in Carlisle novice (7f, good) last month; that was behind an odds-on rival and she should have more to offer for her new yard; not ruled out.

Well held in three turf novices over 6f/7f, albeit she was sent off 3-1 favourite for her second outing; one of her siblings won on the AW and so did her dam, so she is one to consider on nursery debut.
