Hasn't been at her best of late (behind Smurfette latest) but she has the form to feature off this mark and won't mind getting back on drier ground; stays this far; possible.

J: Fern O’Brien

Gave good account when second on seasonal debut at Ffos Las (3m1f, soft) in October and remains on a workable mark but her latest run was disappointing and she'd arguably appeal more on better ground than is forecast.

Form & Verdict
Led close home in Lingfield maiden hurdle (2m3f, soft) in February and was not discredited when second here (2m4f, good) in March; makes chase/handicap debut after 243-day layoff and should have a future over fences.

Seemed to be enjoying hersef in the lead before mid-race mishap at Hereford (3m1f, good; first-time blinkers) last month but she's now 0-9 over fences and has basically become disappointing.

Winning hurdler for Henry Daly in 2024; 0-8 over fences and disappointing in the main; beaten 22l when runner-up last time; blinkers replace cheekpieces.

Form & Verdict
0-6 over hurdles but returned from break with respectable third at Ludlow (2m5f, good to soft) last month and last year's Irish point win bodes well for her prospects over fences; no surprise if she features.

Form & Verdict
Scored on hurdle debut at Wincanton (2m5f, heavy) last December and bettered that form when placed in Listed race at Doncaster (3m, soft) in March; pulled up in valuable handicap later that month and absent since but connections are evidently keen to switch this winning Irish pointer to chasing.
