Not at the top of her game in the Mares' Hurdle at Cheltenham (2m4f, good) last month but this sort of trip may be her optimum; neck second to Strong Leader at Wetherby (3m, good) in November and creditable third behind Impose Toi and Strong Leader in another Grade 2 at Newbury (3m, soft) later that month; ran well here 12 months ago; each-way claims if back on song.

Form & Verdict
Ex-Irish mare who progressed to finish second behind a smart novice at Punchestown's feature spring fixture (yielding; effective on softer); joined this yard for £150,000 and it was always going to be tough for her in the Grade 2 Persian War at Chepstow; should be a lot more competitive in this easier grade.
