Third foal; half-sister to winners Alsaba (French 1m1f; RPR 93) and Thyer (1m including 2yo; 89); dam 1m winner (89); lots to like on paper and one to take seriously.
Modest form in a 7f maiden at Newcastle in one run for George Boughey last March; non-runner 2.58 Windsor Monday.
Sent off favourite for an ordinary Newcastle maiden (1m) two weeks ago and she ran out a wide-margin winner; she has more on her plate under a penalty but she still commands plenty of respect.
Promising second at Southwell on last month's debut (1m; form franked); disappointed as odds-on favourite at Ripon ten days ago (1m2f) when that tricky course didn't appear to suit; could fare better back at a more conventional track.
Promise in two runs last year (7f and 1m); raced too freely and dropped right away when the 2-1 favourite for a Kempton maiden (1m) on last month's return to action; not much to find to play a leading role but she will need to settle better over today's extra yardage.
Huge prices and well beaten in two fillies' novices this spring; no appeal.
Shaped with promise on her second run (1m, Polytrack); failed to back it up returned to Kempton last month; allotted a BHA mark of 62 and she would make more appeal in a minor handicap.
