All three starts on slow ground; tapped back into her debut promise (7f, good to soft) with comfortable novice win at Chepstow (7f, soft) this month; different ground today but she has potential off her opening mark.

Second off this mark to a useful prospect last time and that was better, having run Flat at Chester and then over-raced and not seen out 1m4f at York; had plenty of racing this last year and this, however, and remains vulnerable to improvers.

Runner-up at Ffos Las (7.3f, good) on second start then filled the same position in a first-time hood (retained) at Newbury (6.5f, good), behind an easy winner who then went close in the Mill Reef; begins handicap life on a fair mark and this 420,000gns yearling may have more left in the tank.
