Beaten less than a length into third of ten behind Sunset In Paris in a similar contest at Lingfield (1m2f, Polytrack) on her penultimate start, but that the only time she has made the frame in her last 13 outings; others are more reliable. |

Won four-runner maiden hurdle at Leicester (1m7f, good to firm) last November and soft ground may not have suited in Sandown handicap next time; however, he's failed to shine on the Flat this year which dents confidence in his claims on this chase debut. |

Off the mark in first-time blinkers at Southwell (1m, AW) in October and returned from break with pretty good effort over that C&D in February; had excuses when down the field on both starts in April (soft ground/bled from nose) and is a contender if all goes to plan here; now sports cheekpieces. |
