21st Nov 2024 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Looked useful in bumpers and was a promising novice hurdler last season, albeit during a rather mixed campaign; stopped quickly and was pulled up when switched to fences for last month's handicap debut but it would be foolish to write off her chasing career after that. |

11st 4lb |
Best of her seven runs over hurdles was when runner-up to a useful prospect at Huntingdon on her return from a summer break last November (2m3f, good to soft); didn't really progress but quite interesting now going chasing after another summer off, having had a wind op. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Badly hampered and (latest, behind Calli Black) set a bit much to do from rear in the two lesser runs which bookend last month's fine Uttoxeter second to a now 112-rated rival (2m5f, good); remains of interest. |
3/1 |

Only a 6yo and was clear of the rest when second to a rejuvenated winner at Uttoxeter last month (2m5f, good); chance. |

17th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Sole win over hurdles came with similar trip and ground, and she showed she'll be just as effective over fences when third of seven at Haydock (kept on again after being badly hampered) four weeks ago; the youngest in the line-up and commands major respect. |

21st Jan 2025 Heavy 2m 4f 110y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Runner-up twice in a row last August/September and she's well treated on that form; however, four lesser performances have followed and she's now 0-16; needs a boost from the first-time cheekpieces. |

Betting Forcast
5/2 Jeune Belle, 3/1 Omaha Wish, 7/2 Phone Home, 8/1 Special Dragon, 11/4 Call Blue, 66/1 Design Flaw
Verdict
This looks tricky but the vote goes to bumper/hurdle winner JEUNE BELLE, who won on her reappearance last season and should have a future at this new discipline. The main threat could come from another chase debutante in Call Blue, who is well handicapped on her best hurdles form and is out of a fairly useful chaser. Next on the list is Omaha Wish, who looked good when winning over C&D in June and could be a big factor on her return to fences.[David Moon]
