Improved form in the autumn and made it 3-4 in handicaps when winning at Lingfield last time (2m7f, good to soft; has also won on soft); this unexposed mare is clearly thriving and holds strong claims once more.

Maiden; one fine effort over hurdles, when an unfortunate third in a Uttoxeter maiden in September; tailed off at that track last month but worth a glance in the market ahead of this handicap debut.

0-8 over hurdles and not very consistent but his second of eight off today's mark at Lingfield (2m7f, soft) In November was a good effort, and he was only beaten about 3l when third of four in tactical race over that C&D ten days ago; contender if he takes well to fences at first attempt.

All four wins have came over fences Andy Irvine; her last success was in January 2024 but that was at this track (3m3f) and she returned to form with a creditable third over hurdles here (3m2f, soft) last month; that was only her second start since rejoining her former stable and she's in the mix back over fences.

Form & Verdict
Quite consistent and ran well when third of 16 on this month's Stratford return; solid claims on that but just 1-29 in career (the win came four years ago) and yet to tackle further than an extended 2m4f; chances if he stays; probably best if able to dominate.
