Best form has come on AW/slow turf and well beaten on good on firm in the 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket, while she also has something to find with the principals on her peak runs; however, she won the German 1,000 Guineas (1m, soft) 19 days ago and an uncontested lead is a distinct possibility today, which would be a major plus; could make a bold bid if handling conditions.

Hugely progressive this year, winning 5f handicaps at Wolverhampton and Thirsk before excelling herself when second to Dickensian in a Listed event at York (5f, good) five weeks ago; a 5lb rise isn't ideal but she's on the up and this strong-travelling filly appeals as the type to take well to the demands of this race.
