Bought for £26,000 after finishing runner-up in a point; didn't achieve a great deal in three hurdles but better expected now chasing and the tongue-tie could help.

One win and four seconds from her six runs over fences; it was an uncompetitive race in which she was runner-up last time (2m2f, good to soft) but highly likely to be in the thick of it once more.

Scored over C&D (good) in October 2023 and returned from 226-day absence with creditable third at Worcester (2m4f, good) last summer; major player if in similar form after an even longer layoff here; handles good to soft ground; unproven on anything slower.

J: Jonathan Burke

T: Richard Hobson

Won by a head on chase/handicap debut at Fontwell (2m2f, good; first-time tongue-tie) in October and was second three consecutive times the following month (2m4f-2m6f); has fitness to prove after 226-day absence but still features prominently in calculations; had wind op in May.

Form & Verdict
15-race maiden but having only his second run over fences when beaten 8l behind a well-backed winner at Worcester (2m handicap, good to soft); unlikely to be far away with something similar.

Returned from break with low-key chase run last month and fell mid-race when back over hurdles nine days ago but remains on a good mark and will be suited by today's trip/ground; can't be ruled out.

J: Isabelle Ryder

T: Alex Hales

Safely held when fourth over fences at Fontwell (2m2f, good) this month but that was his first run since November (also his first after a wind op); reverts to hurdling on mark just 2lb higher then when winning this race by 14l on good ground a year ago; must be considered.

Form & Verdict
All four wins at Plumpton but has run well here a few times in the past, including when fresh; nothing wrong with his mark and returns following another wind op; could easily feature.

All four wins have been gained at this track and latest was over C&D (soft) in January; that was off 2b higher but he's not come close to that form since and was a well-held third of four at Fontwell on his recent return after another wind op; has bit to prove and he needs a major revival.

Bled from the nose when pulling up at Worcester in July and she ran as if something was amiss, jumping badly to her right, at Fontwell on latest outing; competitive mark judged on plenty of other form but a note of caution has been sounded.
