Off the mark at sixth attempt when landing a Chepstow nursery (7f, good) in July; only third of six at Newmarket last time but that was a tactical race and she stayed on well in the closing stages; still has potential at this trip and she's only 2lb higher than for her penultimate run; in the mix.

Made it 2-4 in nurseries when holding off a strong finisher at Chester (7f, good to soft) two weeks ago; 3lb higher at this new trip but she still has potential and is out of a half-sister to a 1m2f winner; key player.

No impact in three qualifying runs but RPRs have been progressive and she was only beaten around 3l when sixth at Lingfield (7f, AW) two weeks ago; looks interesting now switched to a nursery and her useful sister won on slow ground.
