Ran nine times for Ollie Sangster, winning twice as a 2yo; best run for that stable came at Saint-Cloud (1m, heavy) when second in Listed; career-best on debut for this stable when winning Group 3 at the Curragh in April, worth more than the 0.5l winning margin suggests; backed up that run in less testing conditions when beaten 3l into seventh in Group 2 18 days ago; big shout back on favoured ground; down in trip.

Won twice for Ollie Sangster at two, including a 7f Listed race at Sandown; began and ended last season with good runs in defeat (in the Nell Gwyn and a Listed contest at Saint-Cloud); sprang a surprise when beating stablemate Princess Child in a C&D Group 3 event on Irish debut; further progress is feasible.

Two-time winner for Ollie Sangster in Britain, including Listed Star Stakes at Sandown in July 2024; last seen 145 days ago finishing 2.5l second to Moon Cloud in Listed mile contest at Saint-Cloud; trainer does very well with recruits, particularly fillies; acts on soft; interesting contender.

J: Jamie Spencer

T: Ollie Sangster

Won a 7f Listed race here last season which remains her career-best form on Topspeed/RPR figures; kicked off this campaign with a second in the Group 3 Nell Gwyn (good to soft) and after flying too high in the French 1,000 Guineas she met with some serious interference in an Irish Group 3 17 days ago; ground this slow will be a first and one or two others appeal more.

Won on second start and land a 7f Listed event at Sandown on third and final run at two; fine second in the Group 3 Nell Gwyn Stakes on return, though it was not an especially strong edition of the race; sights lowered after a failed Classic bid in the Pouliches in May; not to be lightly dismissed.
