Won at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft) last winter and she returned after nine months off with a near-miss at Warwick (3m1f, soft) in November; looks interesting on that form but she's not matched it in two runs since and needs to rediscover her spark.

Solid contender on the form of a Chepstow win (2m7f) last February and when narrowly failing to give weight to a subsequent winner at Warwick (3m1f, also on soft) in November; lacked the pace to play a part on good to soft there since but today's surface and lower grade will help.

Winning pointer/hurdler who progressed nicely over fences in the spring, landing a pair of 3m handicaps with ease; failed to justify favouritism in the Summer Cup at Uttoxeter (3m2f, good) in June but has been given a break since and this drop back to novice company, along with a shorter trip, could provide the ideal platform to get back in the winning groove.
