Promising novice at up to 3m for Jonjo O'Neill in 2023-24 season but well beaten in two handicaps for new stable this year (2m5f/2m4f), the latter at Hexham a fortnight ago; needs to get career back on track.

Won a 2m4f novice hurdle at Carlisle (soft) in October 2023 when with Jonjo O'Neill; 3l behind Pinot Rouge in a Listed mares' novice the following month (3m, good) but now 9lb better off; pulled up at Ayr last time; had a wind op since; interesting.

Showed clear promise in bumpers but she's been well held in her completed starts over hurdles, including when a 21l third on handicap debut at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last month; had wind surgery since but she needs improvement after a short break.

Form & Verdict
On her second run she was beaten just over 7l at Market Rasen in a warm Listed race (good to soft) dominated by Aintree winner Dysart Enos and last year's winner of this Queens Gamble; finished well to beat an Irish male runner with the pair well clear at Stratford (good to soft); she's clearly useful.

Won four on the trot in July-October 2024 at about 2m4f, culminating in a Grade 2 novice event; long absence before three runs this year, easily best of those last time and that display gave some encouragement for this longer trip, but jumping was sketchy and cheekpieces are now applied.
