She's run reasonably well, albeit without seriously threatening, in her first two handicap hurdles (2m1f/2m, soft/good to soft); won five times on the Flat (at up to 1m4f) and she could have more to offer in this code, but it remains to be seen whether she'll stay this far.

Very progressive in completing a good-ground hat-trick last year and when third to Tutti Quanti in a Class 1 handicap at Newbury in November (soft); still on a competitive mark despite all that and for whatever reason he didn't show his true form at Kempton on final sighting at Christmas; if forgiven that, and he's had a break, then he enters the picture.
