Back to life when seventh in the Martin Pipe (2m5f, soft) at Cheltenham after not getting the clearest run and built on that to win by 3.25l at Cork (2m3f, yielding) under a claimer; Townend takes over now and she looks like a mare on an upward curve having disappointed earlier in her career. |

A maiden under both codes and now exposed over hurdles, being 0-14; however, he's finished runner-up on seven occasions and, although below his useful best in 2026, he has the strongest form claims in this weak a maiden. |
