Roger Varian's four-year-old has always been held in high regard and enjoyed a fine summer last term, winning twice at this level, with arguably her best performance coming when second to Donnacha O'Brien's ace filly Porta Fortuna in the Falmouth Stakes.

That performance came over a mile, but it is easy to see from her CV that the seven furlong distance is where she truly thrives and after heading to America in the early part of 2025 she has been right at home at this yardage since returned to home soil.

She was beaten a neck in a red-hot Chartwell Fillies' Stakes at Lingfield, a piece of form which has since been boosted at every turn, while she heads here on the back of a commanding win at Musselburgh last time out and will prove hard to stop if in the same form, despite giving 3lb to all her rivals.

Blindedbythelights was denied by the barest margin at Newmarket in May but can gain compensation now tried up at two miles in the Download The bet365 App Handicap.
