Form & Verdict
Has shown ability, including on soft, but pulled up on handicap debut at Stratford (2m6f) in October and probably needs a shade more than her recent fifth of six at Lingfield (2m, good) last month.

Course winner in 2024 but she failed to take to fences last season and came in last of seven back in this sphere at Newton Abbot (2m) last month; others are much preferred.

Close third over hurdles at Chepstow (2m, good) in October but she's not taken to fences this winter and has been pulled up in last two starts; bit to prove but she's on a dangerous mark back in this sphere and could be a big factor if she can revive; blinkers worn in last two starts are removed.

Form & Verdict
Not yet off the mark but she ran up against one who was well ahead of his mark at Fontwell (2m1f, good; handles good to soft) in November and she ought to be able to find something at this level; thereabouts.

Showed little in points but she's making quiet progress over hurdles and didn't do badly behind a long odds-on shot at Huntingdon four weeks ago; bred to do better and can show more now handicapping.

Had heavy ground as an excuse when pulled up on chase debut in February after nine months off and fared a lot better back on a sounder surface when second of six at Ludlow (2m4f, good) 25 days ago; her jumping was a bit iffy but is entitled to get better with experience; enters calculations.

Not yet added to her French win but there were signs she could make a reduced mark pay when runner-up at Stratford (2m, heavy) on yard debut in October; best excused a non-staying 2m6f run since; worth considering.

Doubled chasing tally with huge-margin success in four-runner contest at Bangor (2m4f, heavy) in November and made audacious bid from the front before weakening into eighth in big field at Cheltenham (2m4f, good to soft) last month; didn't run particularly well on her previous visit to Fakenham but could take some catching if she gets into a good rhythm.

Strong traveller who went close on her first handicap run over a bare 2m, at Worcester (good) in July; unraced on officially soft ground under rules but she had a C&D race on good to soft in safe keeping from some way out 14 days ago; raised 7lb but looks the most likely winner.

Won over hurdles at Hereford (2m, good to soft) in the autumn and battled on gamely for narrow chase success here (2m5f, good) last month; reverts to hurdling on a workable mark; cheekpieces (worn once last year) are refitted; probably won't be far away.

Sole hurdle win at 2m (good to soft) and she never went beyond about 2m4f but she gave a stout display over 2m5f at Newton Abbot (good) recently on her second chase start, when having to be switched and heading a subsequent winner late on; jumps soundly and a 2lb higher mark shouldn't be beyond her.

Comfortably won over hurdles off a similar mark at Hereford (about 2m1f, good to soft) in November; warm in the market when an encouraging second on her chase debut at Ffos Las (2m, good) 13 days ago, looking like a step up in trip could do the trick; gets that today and surely goes well.

Favourite when winning a maiden for mares at Stratford (2m, good to soft) in April; both her handicap runs since were respectable, wearing first-time hood on latest; there's more to be proved with this step back up in trip but she makes more appeal than the big majority of these.
