Last two runs in a tongue-tie; value for her narrow winning margin at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) and probably ran just as well in defeat at Plumpton (soft); did go up 2lb for that 2l defeat which was annoying.

Has won on soft; some low points along the way but she was quite a convincing winner back hurdling at Doncaster (3m, good to soft; first-time tongue-tie) last month, despite the narrow winning margin and bleeding from the nose; the latter issue is a worry and she's back up 5lb but will be a major contender if all is well.

Form & Verdict
Close second in Taunton handicap (2m3f, good to soft) on seasonal debut in November and very respectable third in Listed race there (2m, good to soft) the following month; however, she was behind Casa No Mento on the latter occasion and her run at Market Rasen in February was below par.

Close third in Cheltenham Grade 2 novice (2m good to soft) in October and again ran commendably well when third in Newbury Listed race (2m, soft) a few weeks later but was tailed off when reappearing in a handicap last month and it's hard to know what to expect from her here.
