Dam was a fair 2m-2m4f hurdle winner but this filly showed only a modest level of form in both starts on the Flat (1m) for Amy Murphy and was beaten 43l on last month's hurdle debut for her new stable.

Won 2m maiden hurdle here (good) last April but both handicap runs over that trip this year have been very disappointing; getting back on good ground ought to aid her cause, but she failed to convince stamina-wise when tried over 2m5f last spring and has even further to go today; cheekpieces added.

C&D maiden winner last April (good) but campaign ended abruptly after needing treatment for post-race ataxia next time; soft ground and absence offer some excuses for tame return, but still a bit to take on trust.

Form & Verdict
A £42,000 purchase in January after winning his third start in AQPS in France (1m4f), all on very soft/heavy; unproven on ground as quick as this and it's hard to gauge the level of his ability but he's of obvious appeal having been found a very weak race for his British/stable debut with Sean Bowen in the saddle.

Doesn't always settle but his recent hurdles form features a comfortable win at Doncaster (2m3f, good to soft); ran creditably at Catterick last time; possibilities, provided he takes well to fences.

Probably showed career-best form when scoring in first-time cheekpieces at Southwell (2m4f, good) last month; 7lb rise asks quite a lot of her but this C&D also suits and the headgear may prompt further improvement; big player.

Fairly consistent in a good few handicaps until running below par last time when 3m1f shouldn't have been an issue, though good to soft might have been (seems best on good); wouldn't rule out in the new cheekpieces.

Form & Verdict
Shaped promisingly on debut in a French Flat contest in February last year but has yet to build on that in five starts over hurdles since, latterly in Britain; faded late but didn't run badly back on the Flat at Southwell last month and he has to enter calculations in a weak race back in this code.
