Won juvenile hurdle at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) last November after a break and runner-up at Taunton in December; pulled up on handicap debut at Huntingdon (2m, good) last month and it's hard to be confident on the back of that, but he wore these blinkers on the Flat in the US and they may help.

Got off the mark at the 27th attempt under rules at Exeter (2m, good to firm) last October; ran her best since when runner-up at Fakenham (2m7f, good) 26 days ago; her versatility distance-wise holds her in good stead but her win-record is off-putting.

Scored off today's mark in first-time cheekpieces at Exeter (2m, good to firm) in October and posted a good effort over 2m4f the following month but was pulled up three weeks ago, after a break, and her Flat pedigree raises doubts over the suitability of this trip.

Still seeking her first win for this yard but she has often run well, including over C&D, and her second here three weeks ago was on the back of a 190-day layoff; that form has been franked and she should make another bold bid.
