Ran 2nd at Istanbul over 1200m in a 2Y COND 10 days ago, having previously won the 1100m 2Y MDN FILLIES there over Kir Bumerang. Draws barrier 1 and reunites with Ali Yildiz, a pairing that is (2:1-1), and her local figures read (Istanbul 4:1-1-0; 1200m 1:0-1-0). Solid profile to hold form from the inside.

Debuted 17 days ago with 3rd of 9 at Istanbul over 1200m (2Y COND FILLIES, good), carrying 53kg from barrier 5 behind Rock Of Beautiful and Coral Reefs. Second-up and sticking to the same track/trip (1:0-0-1), a repeat of that effort would keep her competitive.

In-form 2YO with a season record (3:2-1-0) and at 1200m (2:1-1-0); was 2nd at Kocaeli over 1200m eight days ago with 57kg, having previously won the Elazig 2Y COND FILLIES over 1200m on Good with 60kg over Bir Rüzgar. Drawn barrier 5 and unbeaten from barriers 4–6 (2:2-0-0), the short turnaround looks suitable for another forward showing.
