Two from two, namely good-ground wins at Redcar and Beverley, contributing to her yard's great start (9-13) with 2yos this term; form has received a couple of boosts; leading contender on the figures and has the plum draw to boot.

Won her first three starts before close second in Group 3 at Chantilly (6f, good to soft) in June; below par in French Listed race (5f, good) and the Super Sprint (5f, good) on next two runs; of interest on her best form and perhaps a break will have helped, but returns with something to prove.

Came up short when favourite for French Listed event two weeks ago but she comes into the reckoning on her close second in a Group 3 at Chantilly (6f, good to soft) the time before; represents a yard with a wealth of talent in the juvenile department and commands plenty of respect.

Made all at Chester (5f, good) this spring and two of his last three defeats have come in very big fields at the major festivals; ran well to be beaten a short head in between and he shouldn't mind any easing of conditions; mark okay and could go well back down in grade.
