Commentary

Confirmed her debut promise at the second time of asking when winning Lingfield novice in June. Denied a clear run when second on handicap debut next time and acquitted herself as well as could have been expected when fourth in listed race on the July Course (1½m) when last seen in early August.

What the class read says

Stepping up in class, but the evidence backs it — has run against higher-rated rivals and held its own. Crucially, it keeps finishing ahead of what its handicap mark implies — it looks ahead of the handicapper.
