Underwhelming favourite in the 1,000 Guineas on reappearance but has left that behind with subsequent wins in the Irish 1,000 Guineas at the Curragh (1m, good) and the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm); after a slow start last time she was trapped three wide but still won in convincing fashion, and she's a leading contender in her bid for a fifth Group 1 win.
