Won novice hurdle at Perth (2m4f, good) last September and good second off this mark there (2m4f, soft) next time; however, she wasn't quite at the same level in the winter and needs something extra now in cheekpieces.

Point/novice hurdle winner who wasn't beaten far into second behind Diamond Geezer on handicap hurdle debut at Perth (2m4f, soft) in October; hasn't taken to fences subsequently and she could play a leading role now back hurdling.

Point winner who won a novice hurdle at Kelso (2m4f, good) in September and went close in a handicap there (2m4f, soft) next time; awkward at the first fence and reportedly never travelling when well beaten on chase debut at Musselburgh last month, which is a concern, but she retains potential.

Form & Verdict
Probably would have won at Bangor had she not fallen and then made amends from the front at Sedgefield (2m4f, good), which was all very straightforward; more on her plate here with a penalty but going the right way.
