Eye-catcher from the rear at Ascot (1m, soft) in the first of two outings as 2yo for David Menuisier; 80-1 for new yard (same owner) on reappearance in maiden at Newbury (1m, good) four weeks ago and raced far too freely held up in rear, before some headway into mid-division; an interesting handicap newcomer but with plenty to learn, including if she's to stay 1m2f.
