Form & Verdict
Half-sister to the same connections' Desert Hero who is smart; her Chester (1m2f) conqueror has disappointed since but this filly should have learnt a lot from running around there and she's bred to improve with racing.

Made all in a novice at Newmarket (1m2f, good to soft) in August; that looked promising but she was soundly beaten in Listed event at York (1m4f, good to firm; 8-1) and last of six when 5-4 favourite on handicap debut at Ayr (1m2f, good to soft); those give cause for concern.

Won at Yarmouth (1m, good to soft) last October on debut; seen only twice since, when racing freely early on reappearance in August, but still managing to finish second, and comfortably going one better in six-runner race for handicap debut at Haydock (1m2f, good; dictated the pace) five weeks later; up 4lb but promising and 1m4f looks plausible, indeed she has a Group 1 Champions Fillies & Mares entry over this trip in two weeks' time.

Green winner at Yarmouth (1m, good to soft) last October on debut; seen only once since, when racing freely early at Newmarket (1m2f, good to soft) five weeks ago in another novice but still managing second of seven; that form has taken knocks from the first and third but this filly should still bring potential to this handicap debut; Group 1 Champions Fillies & Mares entry over 1m4f in October.

Australia filly who cost 65,000gns as a yearling; second foal; half-sister to 7f AW winner Tournelle (RPR 77); dam sprint maiden (54), sister to 5f Group 3 winner Dibajj; worth a market check but needs to be pretty useful if she's to make this a winning start.
