Powder Snow steps up to G2 company in the Prix du Sandringham over a mile at Chantilly, France, on Sunday, June 5.
The three-year-old filly, trained by Henri-Alex Pantall, stayed on to take sixth over the same course and distance in the Listed Prix Volterra on May 9.
She gained two wins at longer trips in the French provinces, easily scoring over nine furlongs at Saint-Malo on April 24 and taking a conditions race over nearly 12 furlongs at Royan la Palmyre by 14 lengths on April 10.
Lisa-Jane Graffard of Godolphin commented: "Henri-Alex Pantall thinks a lot of Powder Snow and she was very impressive in her two provincial wins.
"Things didn't go quite right for her in the Prix Volterra but she still has a bit to find on form with some of the field.
"We are hoping to see an improved performance."
Powder Snow, ridden for the first time by Mickael Barzalona, emerges from stall four and opposes eight rivals headed by G1 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches sixth Sasparella and Saint-Cloud debut scorer Zayva.
