Sedgefield bumper winner last May (2m1f, good to firm); off the mark over hurdles with a wide-margin success on same track last time (2m4f, good; made all; left clear two out); the one to beat.

Form & Verdict
Didn't show a huge amount in two points; second of five at Plumpton on rules debut (2m4f, good); improved on that before running out of steam at Perth (2m4f, soft) last October when last seen; likely to need another significant step up to win this and a sound surface should help.

Bumper winner who bettered her low-key hurdling debut when keeping on well to go close at Wetherby (2m3f, good to soft) on Boxing Day and had a valid excuse when a disappointing favourite on her next outing (bled from the nose); needs to prove herself on good ground but can play a leading role if back on song.
