Four wins as a 2yo, including valuable C&D nursery on soft ground just over a year ago; 0-6 this year but her clear second over C&D (good) a fortnight ago was a good effort and she has each-way claims at least today.

Handy sort who gained four wins between July and September last year including one over C&D; twice unplaced on the AW (albeit not disgraced first time) since beaten a neck on the July Course (7f, good to soft) last month; could go well.

Took part in a warm race on 5f Salisbury debut (soft), showing signs of ability in fourth which she more than confirmed when making the winner pull out the stops at Goodwood (6f, good) in May; several of those out of the frame have won since; looks good for a bold show.

Made all in Newbury maiden (6f, good) last month on third run and her subsequent nursery debut fourth at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) can be upgraded as she fared best of the four in the near-side group; Miss Fascinator, who was second home from the near-side group, bolted up at Newmarket on Saturday; half-sister to yard's two-time York Listed winner Nymphadora; interesting.
