Form & Verdict
Like so many of her stable's 2yos she's having a productive season, and she posted a personal best when making all in nursery at Ayr (7f, good to soft) in September; not many of these have shown better form and she should be just as effective back at 1m.

Built upon the promise of her debut second (5f, good) to win at Carlisle in July (7f, good to soft), and she was third of five in a valuable novice at Goodwood (1m, good to firm) last time; begins handicap life on a fair mark and could continue to improve for her top northern trainer.

Made all in novice at Thirsk (1m, good) in August and went down only narrowly under a penalty at Kempton (1m, AW) the following month; may have more to offer but she's in deeper here and will need some improvement.

J: Jamie Spencer

T: Hugo Palmer

Made all in a 1m novice as a 2yo and very nearly did so in another; comfortably held in Listed races on her last two appearances, latterly when tongue tied and essentially disappointing at Newmarket (1m2f; first run on ground quicker than good); it asks a lot of her to bounce back in a race of this nature.

Made all in one 1m novice as a 2yo and very nearly did so in another; 11-1 fourth of ten in Listed race here (1m, good to soft; Sacred Ground was second) on final start illustrated some limitations, sticking to her task well as if this longer trip would suit but, despite the Oaks entry, she probably has serious work to do in this company too.

Form & Verdict
Well-bred (half-sister to 1,000 Guineas winner Legatissimo) and looked a useful prospect when gamely winning 7f maiden at Doncaster (good ground) in September, so it was disappointing she could finish only eighth of ten in Newmarket Group 3 (13-2) three weeks ago; should stay at least 1m and she may bounce back.

Her one win from ten starts came in a Lingfield novice as 2yo but she's improving and produced best effort when dividing higher-rated fillies in a Listed race at Carlisle (7f, good to firm) last month; inevitably has torpedoed her handicap mark as a result, going up 10lb, and needs extra back at this level.
