0-17 but she was a fair third on her first two starts this year (2m5f/2m3f, soft) then went close off this mark when upped to 3m at Taunton (heavy) last Thursday; also effective on good to soft; she could have more to offer over this sort of trip and is one to consider in first-time cheekpieces. |

Safely held in all three handicap hurdles, albeit she was prominent for a long way at Ludlow (2m5f, good to soft) on latest outing last month; needs to improve on today's chasing debut but her Irish point second in 2021 bodes well, and she's worth a glance in the betting. |
