Dual-bumper winner including a Listed mares' at Cheltenham (16.5f, soft); well beaten on last start in that sphere in a Grade 2 at Aintree in April (reportedly ran flat); bred to be a hurdler and entitled to maximum respect for top yard; good ground would be an unknown.

Versatile sort has won from 1m-1m4f; uneven form over hurdles and on the Flat this term and was poor at Tramore last time; can start slowly; needs her best.

Dual-purpose mare; not the most consistent sort but has run well in two of her three turf outings this year, including when third over a shorter trip at Down Royal last month; almost two years since her last win.

Dual-purpose mare who went close over 1m2f at Sligo (good) but disappointed there over hurdles last time when 23l behind the winner; she has won twice on the Flat with her last win coming at Gowran in 2023 off a 5lb higher mark; can't be dismissed.
