Developed into fairly useful Flat-racer for William Haggas last year and has shown aptitude for hurdling for new stable this year, most recently when placed against own age-group over C&D (soft) in March; open to improvement on today's handicap hurdle debut; interesting.

Form & Verdict
Late foal who has started to come into her own; made most to win in small fields at Salisbury in a 1m2f novice (firm) and on 1m4f handicap debut (good to firm); promise on Chelmsford Polytrack on reappearance; raised 5lb but scored comfortably last time and that's probably not her limit.

Record of 1-19 over timber; three-time winner on the Flat has placed in two starts in that sphere since falling over hurdles at Leopardstown in March; recent form suggests she's fit and healthy but poor strike rate over hurdles is off-putting.

Had three seasons with Andrew Balding, including three wins, and has been with this yard since July 2023, including for two wins (one over hurdles) and plenty of place returns; third over 1m4f in her only two Flat runs in the last 13 months, including under Patrick McGettigan 17 days ago, and her very solid Flat record for this trainer suggests she will be on the premises.

Form & Verdict
0-4 for the Gosdens; still no win after six runs for new yard but consistent form, including a close second at Windsor in June (11.4f) off this mark; wore tongue-tie with cheekpieces on last three starts and now has blinkers (tried once as 2yo); probably vulnerable again.

Form & Verdict
Sole start here (1m novice as 2yo) was her only win from five races; has not lived up to that form, in 1m4f and 1m1f handicaps on last two occasions but good chance on pedigree that she will stay; late foal who may yet raise her game back here but others look a bit more potent at the moment.

Form & Verdict
Two bits of fair form from five runs in Ireland, namely on debut (sole AW run) and her win with a strong finish in 15-runner race at Limerick (11.5f, good) in June on handicap debut when upped in trip in first-time tongue-tie (kept since); behind on testing ground at Tipperary since; first run since leaving Johnny Murtagh for 37,000gns in early July; makes appeal on that win.
