Won 1m Group 3 at this venue on fourth and final start at two; below-par reappearance here in April; much more like it to win the Group 3 Musidora at York a month later, led over 3f out and ran on strongly; career-best when second in the Oaks, made the running and rallied well after being headed, emerging with almost as such as credit as stablemate Minnie Hauk.

By Wootton Bassett; progressed nicely last year, on final start making most and rallying splendidly to take a 1m Group 3 at the Curragh (1m, soft) with Giselle among those on her heels; never seriously involved on reappearance and started joint-third favourite of six for the Group 3 Musidora at York (10.3f) a month later but she led over 3f out and ran on strongly to win in style; dam 1m winner but dam's sister Hydrangea won Group 1s over 1m and 1m4f; shapes as if she will stay and has big each-way chance.

Progressed nicely last year, on last two outings winning a maiden at Doncaster (7f, good; always prominent) and Group 3 at the Curragh (1m, soft; made most); favourite for Curragh Group 3 (1m, good) one month ago, never getting seriously involved but it was similar form and it now looks as if she needs further than 1m; entered in Group 1s over 1m, 1m2f and 1m4f.

With a clear run it's likely she would have won a warm fillies' novice at Ascot 16 days ago on her second start (1m, good to firm; beaten a short head); there can be optimism this Coronation Stakes entry will continue to progress for her top yard, and no surprise if she makes amends for last time.
