1-10 for current stable over the last year, the win gained off today's mark at Southwell (3m, good to soft) in November; needs to bounce back from a disappointing effort over that C&D last month but ran quite well in a valuable series final two starts ago and is of interest here.

Capitalised upon some considerable help from the handicapper when winning over C&D (good) just under a year ago and returns here after a decent effort at Kelso this month, but she's nothing like the force of old and has become inconsistent.

Made a winning start for this trainer at Wetherby (2m5f, good; 4-1) in October, but she has found a few stronger since, including when a weakening third at Southwell (3m; beaten 12l) a fortnight ago; place possible, but no more than that from this mark.

Form & Verdict
In good form over fences in early part of this year, most notably when winning on heavy-ground at Leicester (2m4f) in February; won't mind if the ground remains good here and current hurdle mark ought to be workable if she's ready to roll after five-month break.

Major personal best on last week's return from eight months out, staying on well late to take a 2m7f Worcester novice handicap (good); little to choose between her peak previous RPRs with or without cut, so she may well cope if the rain arrives; player despite the penalty.
