The progeny of Group 1 winners for her notable connections; has duly shown plenty of promise at novice level and is 2-2 this year, gaining those wins at Yarmouth (good to firm) and Kempton (AW) by an aggregate of nearly 20l, both at about 1m3f; brings major potential to this next step.

I rode Brilliant Star's mother Star Catcher on her debut, and also rode her father Cracksman to win on his debut. She's a mile-and-a-half-filly all over and could be a Ribblesdale type, but I'm sure John and Thady [Gosden] will have a chat and decide her next target - Rab Havlin, jockey.
