Well bred; had 559 days off after shaping okay in a bumper and she was beaten under 9l into third on hurdling debut at Huntingdon; both those runs were on good ground but she's still one of the better options in this poor a race.

The race she won at Newton Abbot (2m1f, soft) lacked depth and a penalty found her out back there next time over 2m5f; Will Featherstone's claim is welcomed.

J: Gavin Sheehan

T: Jamie Snowden

Well bred; had 559 days off after shaping okay in a bumper; beaten under 9l into third on hurdling debut at Huntingdon in April before making the most of a weak opportunity here (2m1f, soft) in May; should be fine on the quicker ground over this longer trip, with stamina in her pedigree, but she might prove vulnerable under her penalty for the win in this stronger race.

Just 1-17 over hurdles, the win gained at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) last summer, but she made a satisfactory reappearance last month and her current mark is workable; considered each-way.

Opened account at Newton Abbot (2m6f, good) last July and runner-up in three of her four starts since, at up to 3m3f; on the premises on that evidence but the 163 days off ask a question.

Runner-up twice at Stratford (3m2f/2m6f) since holding on well to open account at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) in July; evidently in good nick and won't mind if the ground softens; leading contender.

4 yo Filly

OR: 81

Form & Verdict
Her 14l fourth in a soft-ground juvenile hurdle at Hereford needs treating with an element of caution and she was 100-1 when departing early on subsequent handicap debut (was out of the weights).
