Form & Verdict
Bumper/hurdle winner who travelled like the best horse in the race before finishing fourth off this mark in a Grade 2 handicap for mares at Newbury in April (2m4f, good); had a second wind surgery since and now goes in a tongue-tie; could very easily make a winning debut over fences.

Due to take up broodmare duties soon; has won on heavy, raced mainly on good/good to soft; scored readily over C&D on most recent chase start, taking record in Kempton handicaps to 2-2, and remains unexposed at 3m; interesting back here.

One of three runners for Nicky Henderson; Christmas success at Kempton (3m) took her chase record to 3-7; has a fighting chance at the weights, provided that form is transferred back to hurdles.

Form & Verdict
Unable to bring up the hat-trick over hurdles at Wincanton in March but she started her career in points (0-2) and she might well progress further now chasing; 5lb above her last win (2m5f, good to soft), which isn't the end of the world.

Returned to racing under rules with very respectable third over hurdles on stable debut at Hereford (2m3f, good) in April but was well beaten at Warwick last month and did not convince as a chaser for Robert Walford during the 2022-23 season (four attempts).

Form & Verdict
Kept getting placed but she came good in a 2m4f handicap chase at Newbury (soft) and then followed up at Punchestown in April (2m5f, good to yielding), taking that 12-runner race by 5l; now has to deal with a sharp right in the weights but she's progressive; had wind surgery.

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.

Form & Verdict
The winner of two novice hurdles confined to mares, defying a penalty in workmanlike style at Ffos Las (2m, good to soft) in February when last seen; unexposed over this far and this sort of mark shouldn't be beyond her if taking to fences.

Two hurdle wins (both 2m, soft and good to soft) last season; sent chasing this season but that plan quickly aborted after two non-completions; she's been much more competitive back hurdling, second at Southwell (2m, good) before finding 3m just stretching her at Ludlow 17 days ago; not ruled out back down in trip.

Can make the running; won two novice hurdles last term and, after two early departures over fences, she went down by a neck in five-runner handicap at Southwell in December latest when back over hurdles; could have more to offer but those three most notable results were all over 2m, so this trip requires some guesswork; 7lb claimer enlisted.
