Form & Verdict
Won at Market Rasen and Catterick in her first two handicaps, followed by seconds at Southwell and Wetherby; improvement seems to have levelled out but she has nothing to prove regarding stamina or soft/heavy ground; makes much more appeal than most of these.

Runner-up at Carlisle (3m1f, soft) last month and perhaps the race came too soon when fourth to Dillarchie at Catterick (3m1f, good to soft) eight days later; probably okay on good ground; might not be far away.

Form & Verdict
Fared better in bumpers (2021) than in her very light hurdles career; handicap debut (near 2m4f) last time was a heavy defeat but she had form before that and is not totally ruled out given this step up in trip.

Form & Verdict
Inconsistent and sole win was on Flat as 3yo but latest start was one of his best results over hurdles, when fourth of 15 in handicap at Ayr (3m, good); needs to build on that; acted on soft on Flat and 5lb claimer is recruited.

Form & Verdict
Won soft-ground bumper in February 2021 and placed over hurdles that March-December; however, absent 699 days before this season, during which he's gone the wrong way in chases (cheekpieces latest); if the fences entirely explain that, he will be on an excellent mark for this return to hurdles.

Didn't take to fences and was having his second start back over hurdles when winning by 7l at Plumpton (3m1f, good) a fortnight ago; wouldn't have won by so far had his nearest pursuer not fallen two out and he is now 7lb higher, but still high on the list based on that performance.

Form & Verdict
12l second in a Fakenham handicap (2m4f, soft; 6lb lower today) in March 2023 is far and away his best after six races, all over hurdles; 381 days off prior to this month's first run for Henrietta Knight; wore cheekpieces penultimate start, tongue-tie latest and now has both.
