Form & Verdict
Safely held on hurdling debut in the autumn but returned from break with three wide-margin wins in the spring (one over C&D); no match for comfortable winner when second at Stratford (2m, good) six weeks ago and has a bit to find with Father Of Jazz here but ought to play a major role.

Headstrong front-runner who gained two of her five hurdling wins over C&D and is well suited by good ground; absent since her very respectable third in Listed grade at Wetherby (2m, good) in November but has won when fresh before and has a big role to play here if fully tuned up.

Form & Verdict
Very useful Flat-racer; left Dan Skelton after two disappointing hurdle runs during the winter but won three in a row for new yard this spring (all 2m, good); back in novice company after after comfortable success in Class 3 Aintree handicap last time and ought to be a very tough nut to crack.

Progressive hurdler when last seen in 2023, although below best on final start that September; had smart AW form in Group 3 and Listed 1m2f races for Roger Varian earlier and his mark has dropped 8lb since last seen on the Flat; fascinating to see how the betting goes back from absence.
