Close third over hurdles at Wetherby (3m, soft) in January then won over fences at Catterick (3m1f, soft); ran pretty well when 5l third of three in Sedgefield chase (3m2f, good) last time; arrives in good heart and there can be optimism that she'll be fine now back down in trip; possible player.

Close third over hurdles at Wetherby (3m, soft) in January then made it 3-6 over fences when winning at Catterick (3m1f, soft); has won on good ground; it was a weak race last time but she's unexposed over fences and could still have more to offer in this sphere; respected.

Form & Verdict
Record is only 1-21 and her handicap form is unconvincing; however, last two efforts (2m4f) suggest this combination of new trip and new headgear may help.
