Form & Verdict
Unbeaten since the visor went on but she's back in trip here and needed plenty of persuasion to beat three rivals over nearly 3m here two weeks ago (good); no certainty to defy a big penalty for those handicap wins but clearly a contender.

Unplaced when just 2-1 for last month's Flat handicap debut at Lingfield (2m, AW) but justified favouritism in good style at Salisbury (1m6f, good to firm) subsequently; did it in good style and she still appeals as being well treated under a 4lb penalty, especially in view of her hurdling ability.

Developed into fairly useful hurdler when fitted with a visor last year, winning four times (2m4f-2m7f); didn't show a great deal in three AW novice races (8.6f-1m3f) in March and was soundly beaten when upped to 2m for recent handicap debut (visor refitted) but she may yet transfer some of that hurdling ability to this code.

Developed into fairly useful hurdler when fitted with a visor last year, winning four times (2m4f-2m7f); didn't show a great deal in three AW novice races (8.6f-1m3f) in March but this longer trip ought to suit much better and she has the visor refitted on her Flat handicap debut; must be considered.

Winning 2yo for Aidan O'Brien; 0-6 over hurdles but he wasn't beaten far in a 2m4f handicap at Ffos Las when in second-time cheekpieces and it was his first visit to Cartmel when a well-held third on Friday (2m6f maiden); shortlisted.

Won a maiden at Market Rasen in July and a novice at Hexham the following month over around 2m4f but form has dipped since handicapping on his last two starts; blinkers replace cheekpieces on this drop in distance and he needs to be taken seriously in this low grade.

Won a Southwell bumper and Market Rasen maiden (2m2f) on good ground, fairly easily on both occasions; fell at Uttoxeter in June and was a well-held second at Bangor (2m3f, good) last month, but that was behind a useful rival and she should benefit from that run; looks interesting back in calmer waters and still has potential for top yard.
