Held her own in some hot handicaps after winning Newmarket maiden (1m2f, good) in May 2025 but has not really fired on either start this season; will appreciate this ease in grade but needs to up her game.

A few of last year's efforts suggest this sort of mark is within reach; never threatened when favourite for the C&D handicap won by Radiant Beauty on reappearance but was caught further back than ideal the way that race went; the hood she's worn since her second start is off today; still not fully exposed.

Off the mark in 1m2f Newmarket maiden last May; the Sandringham over C&D last June was a brutal start to her handicap career but a strong-finishing fifth of 12 at Glorious Goodwood (1m, good) next time, when blocked in her run, suggested this mark was within reach; had excuses on last two starts and has a big run in her under favourable conditions.

Won Newmarket maiden (1m2f, good) in May on third start and not beaten far in her first two handicaps (1m, good to firm/good) despite not enjoying the rub of the green, with a tough draw at Royal Ascot then a troubled passage when keeping on well at Glorious Goodwood; could have more to offer now back up in trip and this unexposed 3yo is firmly in calculations.
