Form & Verdict

Maiden winner here also landed valuable success (beating Fiery Lucy) in Naas auction contest over 6f; equally good form when fourth in Group 2 Lowther at York, having had every chance; first attempt at 7f here and certainly bred for it so big player.

Confined to 6f since her debut; excellent thirds at Royal Ascot (Group 3) and Newmarket (Group 2) before winning as she was entitled to in a valuable auction race at Naas; her form is right up there and these Ballydoyle fillies are a dangerous species when getting on a roll; player.

Has a bit to find on Topspeed/RPRs but this Naas 5f maiden winner found everything happening too quickly in a 5f Listed race there (yielding) last time but kept digging in to finish a 2l fourth; it's easy to envisage a career best now sent up to 7f (pedigree casts no doubts).
