Form & Verdict
Second runner for yard; five-race maiden but runner up three times in maidens; far from disgraced when tried in Listed company here (1m4f, good) 18 days ago, beaten just 5l; drop in trip today is a slight concern but the form of her last run makes her the one to beat albeit has wide draw to contend with; tongue tie goes on.

Inferior Flat form to a few of these but he's making a name for himself over hurdles and has a similar profile to Quantock Hills (with whom he's closely matched on bare form), having looked on an upward curve until fading away in a Grade 2 here in January; that was his first time on soft ground (won on good and good to soft) so there's reason to believe he'll run better this time; the tongue-tie worn throughout over hurdles is joined by cheekpieces that he wore once on the Flat (finished sixth).
