Won two non-handicaps for Philip Hobbs but well below her best in just two sightings last season and has since changed yards; limited appeal. |

Capable on her day and was a convincing 3m winner at Southwell last June (good) despite jumping drastically right; not disgraced on first completion after a break at Taunton recently (2m, soft) and has possibilities over this more suitable trip. |

First career win came over fences but won back-to-back hurdles last winter, a seller here and 2m6f handicap; fairly treated if resuming in top form. |

10st 8lb |
Runner-up in two Taunton handicaps in early 2021 (2m3f/3m) and returned from long absence with another good effort at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft) last month; can make her presence felt again. |
7/2 |

Maiden; runner-up on both handicaps at the start of 2021 (travelled well when beaten a neck in the second of them); absent since but definitely worth a market check on her return from 21 months away. |

0-11 overall (nine runs over hurdles) but last two starts have seen her finish second to Walk In My Shoes at Bangor and 5l second here, both over a bit further on soft; each-way claims again. |

10st 8lb |
Triple-figure prices in maiden/novice hurdles and has trailed home in all of them; represents a leading yard, though, and is now tongue tied for her handicap debut; any market move would be encouraging. |

Verdict
Esme Shelby can go well again and Shesupincourt is likely to come up with another stout effort but FOLLOW THAT is taken to put a low-key Ffos Las run behind her. Her three previous handicap runs suggested she should have no trouble in finding a race and might indeed have done so on her return at Chepstow had she not made a pig’s ear of the last. Bashful Kate needs watching in the market on her handicap debut.[Emily Weber]
