Won a good-ground point bumper in March and made quite promising stable debut when second of six at Worcester (good) 12 days ago; that form isn't anything out of the ordinary but it sets the standard here.

Just ahead of Theweddingcanwait in a Worcester bumper before winning in workmanlike fashion at Newton Abbot (good to soft); very disappointing when favourite for her hurdling debut and blinkers now join the tongue-tie; should go well if they have a positive effect.

Wound it up from the front and came home ahead in workmanlike fashion in a Newton Abbot bumper on good to soft last month; it's not strong form but has been found a weak race in which to go hurdling.

Close up in a bumper here on debut but that's weak form and she's shown nothing in three hurdle starts since, tailed off when fitted with a tongue-tie over C&D last month; opposable on handicap debut.

Made the frame in three run-of-the-mill bumpers on good/good to soft last summer, but struggled to get competitive (albeit on soft ground) when a big-priced outsider for hurdlng debut in December.

Stoutly bred filly who didn't show a great deal on first two starts (both on good); hood fitted today; needs to take a good step forward.

Unexposed after only six hurdling starts and was very respectable fourth at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) in July, but performed poorly on her latest outing and needs to learn to settle much better.

Running in only her second handicap when beaten under 6l at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) in July and that's something she might build on now sent over further; 9lb out of the weights but Dylan Johnston can claim 5lb now (unlike last time); tongue-tie joins hood.

Well beaten in three run-of-the-mill maidens last summer (2m-2m2f) and unseated rider at first flight when reappearing in a handicap in May; has no form claims but remains unexposed at this level.

Out of a half-sister to Irish Derby winner Desert King; shaped with promise until fading into well-held fourth of eight at Uttoxeter (good) last month; not out of this if she comes on for the run.
