9yo who is lightly raced for her age and won at Ffos Las (2m6f, soft) in November on second run back from break; not seen to same effect at Ludlow (2m5f, soft) 12 days ago but she's better than that; not ruled out.

Lightly raced over last couple of years but bounced back to form at Ffos Las (2m6f, soft) in November, staying on well to win by 6l; subsequent 6lb rise may not be beyond her if the emphasis is on stamina again.

Form & Verdict
Low-mileage 7yo who made quite encouraging handicap debut when fourth at Huntingdon (2m, heavy) last month; didn't build on that effort at Hereford (2m3f, good) nine days ago but a mid-race jumping error seemed to knock her out of her rhythm there, and she remains open to improvement over this sort of trip now she's back on slower ground.

Made quite an encouraging start to her handicap career when fourth of nine over 2m at Huntingdon (heavy) 16 days ago; player if she can build on that but she does tend to race keenly so could do with settling a bit better now stepping up in trip.

Form & Verdict
Stayed on gamely to score at Leicester (2m4f, heavy) in January, her third hurdle win, and probably bettered that performance when close/clear second at Southwell (3m, soft) last month; competes off career-high mark here but still respected in current form.

Got on a roll last spring having joined this yard, winning at Ffos Las and Wetherby (2m4f/3m, good; cheekpieces) before clinching a Flat-race hat-trick at staying trips; brought her stable record to 6-11 when scoring at Leicester (about 2m4f, heavy) one month ago and holds leading claims once again.

Won two good-ground hurdles (2m4f/3m) and three consecutive Flat races during highly productive spell last spring/summer and bettered low-key reappearance run when respectable third at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) last month; may yet have a bigger performance in her.
