Form & Verdict
Perhaps a shade disappointing when upped to 7f for soft-ground Listed race on final 2yo start but won Hamilton maiden (6f, soft) in September and the form of her close second at Goodwood (6f, good) in August reads well; still has untapped potential over this trip and beyond; interesting.

6f maiden winner last season on soft ground; easily her best form was encouragingly on her reappearance on good to firm at Wetherby (7f handicap) where she was in rear for the most part but led late on for a length success; further progress is by no means out of the question for yard that won this in 2018 and last year.
