Ties in with Basilette on latest effort but that rival holds stronger claims kept to Stratford; has never won away from Plumpton and, despite a falling mark, her losing run is mounting up to boot.

Her last win was in a Plumpton maiden in November 2023; mixed results over hurdles this year but was runner-up at Plumpton (2m, soft) in February and she finished a fair fourth at Fontwell (2m3f, good) 19 days ago; continues to edge down the weights and she could be in the mix back in trip.

Both wins over hurdles came at Fontwell; having just her second go over fences when solid sixth in well-contested mares' handicap at Cheltenham (about 2m4f, good to soft) in December; disappointed at Huntingdon over further next time but had wind surgery shortly afterwards and might be worth another chance dropped back in trip.

Almost denied Easy To Follow in a heavy-ground hurdle once, but best figures win or lose have been returned on no worse than the good to soft of last month's tidy 5l sixth in a Cheltenham mares' 0-125; still early days for her as a chaser, appears to jump fine and holds strong claims.

Unlucky not to win three in a row over 2m4f in the spring (good to firm-good to soft); had to settle for fourth when warm favourite to add to her tally at Worcester (2m4f, good) last month but that certainly wasn't a bad run and she remains open to further progress; respected.

Verdict

Market moves will be interesting but a crystal ball isn’t needed to suggest Frodon’s sister COUNTRY LADY should have plenty going for her on debut for a yard that has done particularly well in these races this season. Kay Tara Tara, who has several bumper winners close up in her pedigree, and Janworth are other interesting newcomers while Batwomen and Our Nel have shown enough to think they can also play a part.[Emily Weber]
