Out of a half-sister to Group/Grade 1 winners Modern Games and Mawj; 2-3 so far, winning novices at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) last November and at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) in June (made all); still open to further progress now handicapping; much respected.

J: Rossa Ryan

T: Ralph Beckett

From the family of Modern Games (multiple 1m Group/Grade 1s) and Mawj (1,000 Guineas and US 1m1f Grade 1); strong in the market and overcame early greenness, finishing off well to make a winning debut at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in November; could be anything and sets the standard alongside Showering on this return; turf debut.

Both starts on AW; only midfield at Wolverhampton (8.5f) latest but may improve with that reappearance effort under her belt; went close at Kempton (7f) last autumn, albeit the form is weak.

In fine form since upped to middle-distances this summer; whether it was the soft ground or her revised mark that proved her undoing last time remains to be seen but having Harry Vigors take off 5lb won't hurt her chances.

Has found some improvement up in trip in recent weeks, prevailing narrowly at Kempton (1m3f) before following up with more to spare on turf at Ffos Las (1m4f, good to soft) six days ago; not obviously well treated under a 5lb penalty (new mark due to be 2lb lower) but is unexposed at around 1m3f+ and on turf.

Third to Beautiful Diamond over 5.5f here (soft) in September on her final run for Mark Usher; low-key start for Ralph Beckett but she bounced back to form at York (6f, good) eight days ago, blowing the start but making a big mid-race move before weakening into fourth close home; shaped like the best horse in that race and perhaps has a stronger chance than her rating might indicate.

Ran well when third in a Listed event at Ayr last September (5.5f, soft; final run for Mark Usher); unplaced in two Listed races for new stable in 2026; faces a more suitable challenge today and her apprentice takes off a valuable 7lb.

More than just not handling the track was amiss when she was last on her recent return at Newmarket (6f, good to firm); however, this lightly raced 4yo showed improved form when tackling soft ground at Ayr last September, finishing third in that 5.5f Listed race; not discounted back on slow ground.
