Kingman filly didn't show much in sole start last season at Cork (7f, soft) when slowly away; pedigree suggests she'll get better with age and she's open to plenty of improvement on her seasonal reappearance.
Comment
No impact in sole start last year, bred to get better with age, could improve plenty

Not a bad effort over 7f (yielding) here on debut, showing up well before weakening into a 12l fifth of 12; not sure this longer trip will suit on that evidence.
Comment
Weakened into 12l fifth over 7f here on debut, not sure this extra furlong will suit
