Form & Verdict
Has been disappointing since winning on bumper debut in 2022 and 0-8 over hurdles; back to some form when cheekpieces added (retained), over 8l fourth at Exeter (2m2f, good) most recently; needs this switch to fences to spark improvement.

Should be well handicapped but was pulled up over hurdles and fences before departing early in a handicap chase here 12 days ago; best watched.

Back below the mark of November's mares' handicap win at Fakenham (2m6f, good to soft); rarely operated at that level since, with little about two latest runs suggesting April's wind surgery has done anything for her.

J: Harry Cobden

Won over fences last season (2m5f, good to soft) but it was an up-and-down campaign in both disciplines; ran moderately on the back of wind surgery on return to hurdles at Southwell but certainly has a big run in her if she can rediscover her form.

Form & Verdict
Out of form over hurdles and has fared little better since switched to fences the last twice, pulled up latest; has dropped down the weights and the blinkers return but can only be watched at present.

8 yo Mare

OR: 102

Form & Verdict
Reliable hurdler at up to 3m; posted a couple of solid efforts switched to fences in May, most recently when a staying-on third of five finishers at Huntingdon (2m7f, good); this trip around here might be on the sharp side but she has gone well fresh and is likely to give her running.

Made all at Wetherby (2m3f, soft; form worked out well) just under a year ago but wasn't seen again until heavy defeat at Leicester (2m4f, soft) in December and needs to have taken significant benefit from that run.

Won when back over hurdles at Leicester (2m4f, heavy) last month; beaten 12l into second of 15 when unpenalised at Wincanton (2m4f, heavy) nine days later and a 6lb rise has now kicked in, but it was still a creditable effort last time and she can give another good account.

Form & Verdict
Finished second over hurdles at Uttoxeter (2m, soft) in July on final start for Fergal O'Brien; pulled up on last month's stable debut (hurdles) and offered little back over fences since; others appeal more.
