Down the field in the Group 1 Prix de Diane at Chantilly last time (1m2f, good to soft; sole run on slow ground) but prior to that she was a close Listed third at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) and remains very lightly raced for her top stable; not discounted now back down in grade.

Listed winner at York (1m2f, good) last July; even better form when runner-up in Group 3 at the Curragh (1m1f, good to yielding) the following month but she hasn't got near that level in three subsequent outings, including two this season; that has resulted in her mark easing but she needs to be back with a bang in first-time blinkers (replacing cheekpieces worn last time).
