3-6 over fences, with all three wins gained at Ludlow (2m4f, good to soft); did it pretty stylishly there 18 days ago, but subsequent 9lb rise asks quite a lot of her and she's away from her favourite track today.

Record of 6-16 over fences; broke her Listed duck in Doncaster contest (2m4f) most recently, taking advantage of odds-on Brides Hill's below-par show; chance of following up partly depends on whether that opponent, who beat her by 6l in this event last year, is back on song.

Began chasing career with two wins last winter, the latter gained here (3m, good); ended last season with two poor performances on slow ground and has fitness to prove after 200-day break, but can cope with today's drop back in trip and ought to appreciate the return to a sound surface.

Returned to form with small-field win in first-time visor at Carlisle (2m5f, soft) last month; remains on a workable mark and will be fine over today's longer trip but was struggling to keep up with Juniper before falling quite heavily at three out at Taunton (2m5f, soft) on latest outing.

Made it 2-2 at Carlisle (2m5f; both on soft) when winning the same race for the second time this month (first-time visor replaced blinkers, as today); acts on sharp right-handed tracks as well and, despite going back up 4lb, her first Carlisle win came off this mark; looks good for a big run.
