Won this last year prior to finishing placed in two North American Grade 1s; not at her best when third of fourth in Group 2 at York on last month's reappearance but it wasn't a bad run and she may well have needed it; very much the one to beat if reproducing anything close to her peak form.

An improved performer last year, winning a good-ground Listed race at Haydock (reappearance) and AW Group 3 at Newcastle around 1m2f before progressing again to place in Grade 1s on firm at Woodbine (1m2f) and Del Mar (1m3f; Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf); bang there on form but the fact her top stable has gone nearly three weeks without a winner has to be a slight concern.

Form & Verdict
Reappeared with an easy win in Class 4 handicap at Salisbury (1m2f, soft) last month; has also won on fast ground; this 4yo is lightly raced and it remains to be seen where her limitations lie, but she's in a much hotter race than last time and others have more substance to their form.

Lightly raced 4yo who reappeared with easy win in C&D handicap (soft) last month; no match for the 1-2 winner when Listed second of five at York recently (1m2f, good to firm) but that performance entitles her to respect.

Won a novice at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) last August on her second start and ran well in a handicap at Newbury (1m2f, soft) 228 days ago; off since but she should have a bit more to offer after just five starts.

Form & Verdict
Won two in a row (7f novice then 8.6f handicap) before staying on for close third at Goodwood (1m2f, good) in May in a race that has worked out extremely well; well beaten in the Oaks at Epsom last time but the good to soft ground may not have suited; this 3yo retains potential for her good yard.

Close Listed third at Goodwood (1m2f, good) in May and that form has worked out extremely well; tailed off in the Oaks at Epsom (1m4f, good to soft) next time and behind Regal Charm when fourth of five in Listed race at York (1m2f, good to firm) last time; not written off but has to raise her game.
