Alderney justified an entry in the Aug. 27 G1 Moyglare Stud S. with an imposing performance in this debut. Finding cover in fifth from the bell, the 11-4 chance was angled wide for her run with 1 1/2 furlongs remaining. Swooping for the lead soon after, the bay was ridden clear with a minimum of fuss to account for Dawlleh (GB) (Noverre) by an impressive four lengths. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, 6,542.
