Form & Verdict
Oaks entry who left a positive impression with her novice wins at Lingfield (AW) in December and 16 days ago, overcoming a slow start on first occasion and always prominent when well on top at 2-11 last time; has much more to do in this line-up but her stable is the dominant one in this race.

2-2 (1m/1m2f, AW) before third to subsequent Oaks runner-up Whirl in Group 3 Musidora (10.2f, good to firm; Serenity Prayer a neck ahead in second); well beaten herself in the Oaks but perhaps the slow ground and/or track didn't suit; top stable (runs three) has fine record in this race and she retains potential; not written off in first-time headgear.

By Night Of Thunder out of a Lingfield Oaks Trial winner; winning novice events at Lingfield (1m/1m2f, AW) on first two starts showed plenty of promise, which she followed with third of six in the Group 3 Musidora at York (10.3f, good to firm; weak 9-1) 23 days ago; may be able to improve again but Whirl left her nearly 6l behind at York.

Form & Verdict
Novice win at Newmarket (7f, good) last July; about 3l fourth in the Group 2 May Hill at Doncaster (1m, good) in September is the best form in this field, which was followed by a poor show in France but that was on heavy going; a realistic candidate, with 1m2f likely to suit her well.

0-7 since winning debut but has been set some stiff tasks and there was enough promise in her last-time-out fourth (1m3f, here) to suggest she could soon double her tally; hood retained; market informative on return.

Really encouraging fourth behind the subsequent 1,000 Guineas winner in last year's May Hill at Doncaster (1m, good) one year ago is starting to fade from the memory and she's beaten a total of two horses in three starts this year; needs to turn the ship around.

Won debut at Newbury (1m2f, good) in April and runner-up in Group 3 Musidora at York (10.2f, good to firm) in May; not far off the latter form when she tried 1m4f in the Group 2 Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot (good to firm) but that sixth of 11 was rather disappointing for the second favourite; she didn't see it out that well either but her dam was Group 3 winner at 1m6f.

Largely progressive sort (1m2f winner) last season but she wasn't seen out after posting just a fair fifth of seven in 1m6f Newmarket handicap in August; this demands a clear personal best after eight months off the track.

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.
