Form & Verdict
Mixed record in five runs over hurdles but her latest fourth in a Uttoxeter handicap (2m, good to soft) was a respectable effort; now goes back up in trip but she was runner-up in a point and has each-way claims if she can build on that last run.

Displayed significant improvement to win in good style at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft; well backed) in February 2025, her sixth start over hurdles; could quite plausibly have more to offer but this is her first run since; market instructive.

First-time cheekpieces did the trick when she won at Ffos Las in November 2024 and she matched that form when third of 14 here (also about 2m4f, good to soft) last February; inconsistent and generally struggling since and pulled up after a bad mistake when blinkered for chase debut last time; handy mark, however, and the return to hurdles and cheekpieces might help.
