Ex-French filly; scored easily on her debut for James Owen in 2m Fakenham juvenile hurdle in October and backed it up with a good third of 12 in Listed event at Newbury (2m) the following month; off since but yard continues to go very well so she must enter calculations.

Form & Verdict
Keen-going front-runner who has made the frame on all six hurdling starts, most notably when winning by 8l at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) in August; has her limitations but can cope if the ground is good to soft here (untested on anything slower) and ought to make another bold bid.

0-5 on the Flat; won easily at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) before proving no match for a useful juvenile (winner since) back there when penalised (good to soft); free-going tendencies could be an issue should conditions turn testing but fair chance otherwise.
