Hurdle/chase winner; her jumping left a bit to be desired back over hurdles in new blinkers at Exeter a month ago (2m, good; no match for the 8l winner) and Brendan Powell presumably prefers the chances of stablemate Ellerton.

Won a maiden hurdle here last season on good to firm and beat four rivals on chase debut at Uttoxeter in November (2m, heavy); the wheels have come off but she's back hurdling now and with blinkers given a go; not ruled out.

Maiden hurdle winner (2m, good to soft) who scored on her chase debut at Uttoxeter (2m, heavy) in November; she didn't jump well when pulled up at Wincanton on Boxing Day and has something to prove on the back of that, but she remains of interest in view of her previous promise.

Form & Verdict
Made fairly encouraging hurdle debut when keeping-on fifth against own age-group at Hereford (2m, good to soft) last month but needs to improve here and we may not see the best of her until she tackles much longer trips.

Signs of promise in three maiden hurdles for Cliver Boultbee-Brooks; fair 15l sixth of ten in a 2m4f Worcester mares' handicap hurdle (good) on stable debut in May; down 3lb but still not obviously well handicapped and improvement needed.

Fair Flat racer who won twice over 2m last year (turf/AW); showed only minor promise on hurdling debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in October, though, and took a backward step at Wincanton the following month.

Hasn't been in much form on the AW or over hurdles for a few runs now, but is just 1lb higher than when winning over C&D last October; each-way claims if back to that sort of form.
