9yo who has been progressive during this first chasing campaign, winning twice (2m/2m4f, soft/good to soft); she's open to further improvement but it's necessary now back up in grade, and she needs to prove her stamina; soundly beaten over hurdles on sole previous run in these cheekpieces.

Has taken well to fences this term, a ready win at Ayr (about 2m, soft) in November preceding solid fourth of 15 in competitive 2m4f Cheltenham handicap (good to soft) the following month; creditable third in mares' Listed company last time and every chase she can notch a second win over fences, particularly if putting her jumping to good use.

J: Danny McMenamin

T: Nicky Richards

Northern raider who is a novice chaser; justified favouritism at Ayr (2m) in November; another good handicap effort when sent down south to Cheltenham (2m4f, good to soft) most recently; may struggle to bag Listed honours but could go well.

Had consistent campaign over hurdles last term, winning over 2m5f here (soft); solid start over fences when second of four at Carlisle (2m, good) 16 days ago, keeping on well; should build on that and must be considered.
