J: Cieren Fallon

T: Martin Dunne

Lightly raced 3yo who was sold out of William Haggas's yard for 6,000gns on July 1 and has proved to be a bargain buy for new connections, making it 2-2 for current yard when winning big-field fillies' handicap at Glorious Goodwood (6f, good); today's assignment demands further improvement but she's clearly thriving and is not ruled out.

Won her novice over C&D (good) for William Haggas whom she left for 6,000gns; that looks a bargain after she emerged from last to first when denying Shallow over 6f at Newmarket 11 days ago; that was quite taking and she could still be nicely treated off 5lb higher.

Struggled in Class 3 event at Glorious Goodwood three weeks ago, but she's a C&D winner who was runner-up here (6f, good to firm; first-time visor) on her penultimate run; has claims if she can recapture that form and her last three wins have been under George Wood.

Races prominently; behind some of these in a 7f handicap at the Newmarket July meeting but the visor went on back there 11 days ago and, in a 6f handicap she'd won the previous year, she beat all bar late player Sing The Blues; her close third behind Bintaryana at York in June is another key piece of form that heightens interest.

Versatile ground-wise and she recorded her ninth win when bouncing with a comfortable success over C&D (good to firm) in June; still looks feasibly treated on that form and she was a fair third in a Class 3 event back here last month; respected dropped back in grade.

Has a very good C&D record with three wins (all good to firm) last term; had dipped below her last winning mark when attempting to make it four three weeks ago, so her sixth of seven behind Powdering was underwhelming; dropped a further 2lb and she's not readily dismissed.

Constant progress last year saw her win four nurseries (5f, sound turf and AW) and she completed her season with very creditable fourth of 19 in a Listed event at the other Newmarket track (6f, good) in October; look for market interest ahead of this reappearance.
