425,000gns yearling; third foal; Night Of Thunder half-sister to Group-placed 1m4f winner Lmay (RPR 102); unraced dam from classy family (half-sister to St Leger winner Logician); faces no easy task on debut but there's lots to like on paper and she could be a contender.

Very talented 5yo who raced exclusively over 1m4f in her four races last year; won at Group 2/3 level at Haydock before excellent form in defeat in two Group 1s, second to Minnie Hauk at York and to Kalpana at Ascot; started the new season brightly with odds-on win at Carlisle (1m3f); handled quick ground then, but reckoned to be best on a slower surface.

Very talented 5yo whose two wins last year included this race (1m4f, good; at Haydock) on reappearance; ran a cracker when second in Group 1 at Ascot (1m4f, good) on final start; that makes her the clear form pick back in this grade and she's the one to beat if ready to roll after 224 days off.

Lightly raced 4yo who played second fiddle to top filly Minnie Hauk in the Yorkshire Oaks at York last time when it was thought that good to firm ground was not ideal; record of 4-4 on good or softer features two Group wins at Haydock (1m4f) this season and the Arc de Triomphe was her long-term target, but she missed that race when scoping dirty; reportedly back on song and she's a leading contender if getting her ground.

Form & Verdict
Creditable third on first two starts (7f/1m2f, soft/good to soft) then not disgraced in Listed Cheshire Oaks; merely mid-division on handicap debut at Haydock (1m2f, good) in June and could do with settling better, but she's entitled to respect in view of her previous promise.

Fairly useful form when placed four times over 1m2f on the Flat for Andrew Balding last year; raced too freely on her first two stable/hurdle starts, easily brushed aside by short-odds winner when remote second at Stratford (2m, good) this month, but there is still hope she might transfer more of her Flat ability to this code.

Highly progressive in AW handicaps prior to creditable third of six in Group 3 at Newcastle (again AW) in June, all at about 1m2f; she's failed to match that back on turf (good; unraced on firmer) for her last two outings, but kept on steadily for a close third of 12 (on the heels of Rainbows Edge) in Listed race here on latest to give some hope for this new trip.
