8 yo Mare

OR: 99

Form & Verdict
Placed in Irish points; improved on earlier handicap hurdle form when winning at Hereford in December (2m5f, soft; acts on good to soft) but heavy ground at Ffos Las since proved to be too much and she was pulled up; should have some potential now switched to fences.

Two chase wins over about 2m6f last winter but she showed something new when easily accounting for her four rivals over about 3m at Chepstow (soft) on reappearance three weeks ago; 9lb higher today and back down in trip but she did it well last time.

Two chase wins last winter over shorter; hasn't looked the strongest stayer in three runs over 3m under rules and she'll need to be cherry ripe to take this back from 232 days on the sidelines.

Form & Verdict
Won sole Irish point; close up in handicap hurdles at 2m-2m7f early in 2022 but had slow start to chase career, finishing remote on debut, then never threatening in fourth at Huntingdon on Boxing Day (2m4f, soft), albeit not too far behind a subsequent winner; may yet do better.

8 yo Mare

OR: 105

Form & Verdict
Dual hurdle winner last midwinter (2m4f/2m5f; good to soft) but she would have finished behind Whatsdastory on her chase debut at Kempton had that rival not declined the last; pulled up at Cheltenham since (where Whatsdastory was a fair sixth) and has it to prove as a chaser for now.

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).

Very lightly raced in recent years but stayed on from the rear for third when back under rules for last month's stable debut at Hereford (2m3f; tongue-tie/cheekpieces refitted); still very well handicapped on old form; contender if that recent outing brought her on.

Form & Verdict
Beat two rivals in minor 2m5f Hereford contest in October but was too tired to attempt the final fence at Kempton next time; however, she wasn't outclassed at Cheltenham in December (2m4f, good; has won on heavy) and her sights are lowered here.
