3yo filly whose best effort in three runs as a 2yo came when a 1.75l fourth of 23 in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot; last of seven in a C&D Listed race in July and not seen again until landing a 5f maiden at Cork (soft) 23 days ago; gets all the allowances and that maiden form was boosted at Navan on Saturday.

Chased home Charles Darwin on debut at Naas (5f, good); ran a cracker when a 1.75l fourth behind True Love in the Queen Mary (5f, gd-fm) at Royal Ascot; reportedly slightly lame post-race when disappointing on final run of 2025 in listed heat at Naas; sets a high standard and hard to beat if handles ground.

A 320,000gns Breeze-up buy; made debut over C&D, showed up well before losing out to Aidan O'Brien's Charles Darwin who had two runs under his belt and subsequently won the Norfolk Stakes; underlined the quality of the Irish juvenile crop when fourth to True Love (Railway Stakes winner last Saturday) in the Queen Mary; excellent chance despite being the only maiden in the field.

Standout run on seasonal return when saying on third behind a smart type in Cork maiden (5f, soft) in April; ran no sort of race there last month before just fair fourth on Dundalk AW last week (3l off Cool Azul) when tried in a tongue-tie; nicely-weighted on best form and rider's claim a bonus on handicap debut.

Has only run on soft turf; first two runs were fine, including comeback third over 5f at Cork; 10-11 fav back there over 6f, was on the wrong side when bombed out completely in race where Cool Azul was second; that was too bad to be true; tongue-tie on now.

Rated 80 and ran well in defeat at times last year; narrowly denied at the Curragh (yld-sft) in September; reportedly in season when disappointing at Navan in October and AW may not have suited when last seen at Dundalk in November; 5f could suit and looks the chief danger to Cardiff By The Sea.
