Won novice hurdle here (2m3f, soft) last February and she returned to form when third of seven at Haydock (3m, good to soft) in December following a break; could build on that latest effort and she's a possible player.

T: James Moffatt

Came good for James Moffatt at third attempt, in Carlisle novice hurdle (2m3f, soft) in February, and was reportedly unsuited by the good ground when well-held sixth here (3m1f) on handicap hurdle debut in May; remains unexposed under rules and has plenty of Irish pointing experience to call upon on this chasing debut; interesting.

Form & Verdict
Proved suited by the step up to 2m3f at Wetherby (good to soft) on Boxing Day, beating Wendywilldo by a neck, and may well build on that success; 1-1 at Carlisle (bumper); one of the main contenders.

Justified favouritism in 2m3f mares' handicap most recently, taking Wetherby record to 3121; faces a stiffer assignment in this field, back against males, but holds solid claims kept to this venue.

She could do with settling better but perhaps the heavy ground was too much at Newcastle last month; won C&D maiden (good to soft) in December 2024 and runner-up to handicap blot in C&D handicap (soft) in November; could bounce back and play a leading role now back here.

Short-odds C&D maiden winner (four ran) this time last year; form figures since introduced to handicapping read 243U, still bang there when unseating her rider at the last over C&D recently; good ground plays to strengths; possibilities despite going up 4lb.

Won C&D maiden (good) last May and runner-up on handicap debut at Kelso (2m6f, good) in October; below par on her next two runs but one was over 3m and the latest was on heavy going; this trip on drying ground could prove ideal and she's a possible contender.

Bumper winner who bettered her low-key hurdling debut when keeping on well to go close at Wetherby (2m3f, good to soft) on Boxing Day and had a valid excuse when a disappointing favourite on her next outing (bled from the nose); needs to prove herself on good ground but can play a leading role if back on song.

Yard firmly back among the winners of late and she opened her account in some style in 2m4f handicap hurdle at Newcastle 15 days ago; always travelling strongly there so big shout despite the drop back in trip and 6lb weights rise.
