Form & Verdict
Fast-improving mare who has been on the rampage over the last fortnight, winning two 2m chases and two hurdles (2m4f/2m) on good ground; carries 7lb penalty for Tuesday's success over fences at Southwell but did that pretty easily; obvious contender, providing she's not derailed by significant rain.

Effectively runs off 3lb lower here than when last week's chase success in a Newton Abbot match (2m, good) completed her six-timer inside 15 days; unraced right-handed so far during her winning streak, but no real reason why that or the return to hurdling should present a problem; 10lb well in.

Rapidly improving mare, having won three chases and two hurdles (2m4f/2m) on good ground in the space of a fortnight, latest at Worcester yesterday on the bridle and value for markedly more than the winning margin; respected assuming she again turns out quickly, although any significant easing of the ground would be a concern.
