Form & Verdict
Finished second in a Yarmouth fillies' maiden (6f, good to firm) that represents strong form on debut in May; stepped up on that when second in the Albany at Royal Ascot, reversing the placings with filly that beat her at Yarmouth in the process; sets a high standard for her rivals to aim at.

Runner-up in last season's Albany Stakes here (6f, good to firm) but a win at 1-12 in a Leicester maiden remains her only success; dropping into Listed company should help but others look stronger for win purposes.

Has to rebound from a nothing run in the Nell Gwyn in April but perhaps it's better to judge her on 2yo form, which included a second to the brilliant Venetian Sun in the 6f Albany at this meeting and another fine run in a 7f Group 3; both those efforts were on good to firm and pedigree bodes well for this first step up to 1m; her profile isn't a million miles away from Soprano's who won this for the same connections two years ago; possibilities.

The form of her Lingfield win (5f, good) in June is modest and a 5lb rise looks stiff enough on the face of it; that said, she's still completely unexposed and in this field that's enough for her to command considerable respect now switched to AW.

Beat Lam Yai to win the Group 3 Firth Of Clyde at this meeting last year (6f, soft); not at the same level this season but last month's Listed fourth at Pontefract (6f, good to firm) was a step back in the right direction and this 3yo is worth a second look back here and back on slow ground.

No threat in three 6f runs but she would have finished closer to a subsequent winner at Lingfield (6f, AW) in April had her jockey not had to concentrate on trying to prevent her hanging; found little over C&D since; should fare better now handicapping but new cheekpieces are an unknown.
