Debuting in the mile encounter, the John and Thady Gosden-trained daughter of the 2012 Coronation heroine recovered from a tardy start to find cover behind the leaders in fifth after the initial stages. Looming large on the stands' side at the quarter-mile marker, the 4-1 chance quickened smartly to lead approaching the final furlong and was ridden out by Robert Havlin in the closing stages to account for Copy Artist by two lengths. "This filly is still raw, but she has talent," the rider said. "She quickened up well, she'll have learnt plenty and she can only come forward for the run." Thady Gosden added, "She'd been going nicely at home and her mother won the Coronation St., while Kingman was a champion miler. So yes, we would take a look at the Coronation St. It's five weeks away, but another run would benefit her."
