T: Dan Skelton

Ex-Irish mare who has been a bit up and down for Dan Skelton but did run well at Leicecster last time (2m4f, good to soft) given one notable mistake that she made; won't mind returning to further and off this mark she's entitled to have a major say.

First three runs this season were solid, notably a win at Exeter (3m, good) in November followed by a close second over 2m4f at Cheltenham; disappointed at Hereford a week later, though, and pulled up on return from a two-month break 16 days ago, so now has something to prove; however, a bounce-back would not surprise.

Won at Exeter (3m, good) in November on second stable start before close second of 15 to Party Vibes at Cheltenham (2m4f, good to soft) in December; her run at Hereford seven days later may have come too soon (3m1f, soft; ground shouldn't have been an issue); remains of interest for top yard.
