She can race awkwardly but kept on for fifth, beaten only about 3l, in a Listed race at Goodwood (1m2f, good) in May and got back on the scoresheet with narrow handicap win at Newbury (1m5f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; further improvement is necessary but her dam won the Irish Oaks and her stable has won four of the last ten runnings of this race; one of two for yard.
