Rah Rah puts her unbeaten record on the line in the Group Two Queen Mary Stakes over five furlongs at Royal Ascot, UK, on Wednesday, June 17.
The Mark Johnston-trained two-year-old has raced twice, both over the same distance, and rallied gamely for a half-length victory in a Chester conditions race on May 6.
She made a winning debut at Kempton Park on March 28, when she enjoyed an emphatic success in a Polytrack maiden.
William Buick rides the daughter of Lonhro for the first time.
Mark Johnston reported: "Rah Rah is two from two and it was a great win at Chester, when she got headed and found again.
"This is a big step up in class - the Queen Mary is always a very tough race - but we are very hopeful. I don't think quicker ground will be a concern at all."
Rah Rah lines up against 22 two-year-old fillies including the unbeaten pair of Besharah and Easton Angel plus US raiders Acapulco and Bruised Orange.
