Twice-raced filly who is open to any amount of further progress and looks a Listed/Group performer in the making; eye-catching second at Newbury (1m, soft) in the autumn then went one better by stretching nicely clear to score by 5l at Newmarket (1m2f, good) on reappearance; respected.

90,000gns yearling; by Time Test; sibling to three winners, notably Devil's Advocate (1m2f including 2yo; RPR 113); dam 1m-1m6f scorer (including 2yo/Group 3; 104); less interesting than stablemate My Ophelia.

Minor honours in maiden/novice events at Leicester (7f), Newmarket (1m2f) and Salisbury (1m3f); led over 2f out last time but looked green in front and carried her head a bit high; early days, going handicapping first time.

Promising fourth of 12 on her debut at Leicester (7f, good to soft) in September and filled that same position on her reappearance at Newmarket (1m2f, good; raced freely) 13 days ago; may yet do better.

1,400gns 2yo; second foal; dam placed 7.5f/1m2f 2yo (RPR 76), out of well-bred, French 1m2f Listed winner; trainer is 2-12 here this year but he's not known for 2yo success; this Ulysses newcomer is probably best watched.
