Runner-up to Liquid Cooled at Newcastle (6f; 14-1) in March and not far off those levels at Redcar (fourth) and Southwell (fifth) since; tackles 7f for the first time - isn't an obvious move on pedigree - in newly fitted cheekpieces.

Form & Verdict
90,000euros yearling; displayed natural speed before weakening on Thirsk debut (5f, good to firm; fifth, 17-2, form boosted since); a newly applied hood could curb some of her eagerness, but this sharp track will still suit her run style; possibilities.

Made all at Catterick (5f, good) on second start then mid-division in warm fillies' conditions race at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good); fared best of the four who were on the far side on nursery debut at Thirsk (5f, good) this month and attractive pedigree hints slow ground will suit; interesting.

Made all with hood added at Catterick (5f, good) on her second start and she ran well for a long way in useful conditions event at Glorious Goodwood (sixth of 11) last time; should have more to offer now switched to a nursery and this speedy filly needs a close look.

Form & Verdict
£62,000 2yo breeze-ups; gave a good account, drawing clear with the winner, on Yarmouth debut (5f, good to firm; 12-1) just under three weeks ago; if able to replicate that on this easier ground, this half-sister to three winners should again have the measure of Yellow Diamonds, and is the one to beat.

All starts at 5f; no impact in two Listed races after winning Ripon fillies' maiden (good) for Archie Watson last term; sights lowered for this yard but form of three handicap runs on Wolverhampton's AW suggest this extra furlong will need to give her quite the boost.

Well beaten on both starts, latterly always behind over 6f at Redcar (125-1); will soon be eligible for a mark, and low-level nurseries are where her future lies; focus elsewhere.
