1-9 for Clive Cox, the victory coming in a 7f fillies' handicap at Doncaster last July (good ground); 2lb below that mark now and although she was well beaten at Brighton on last month's stable debut, she could take a good step forward.

Won off reduced mark at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in March and has remained in good form since; only faded out of contention in closing stages when fifth over C&D (good to soft; behind Too Much Trevor and Connie's Rose) last week and ought to be better suited by today's faster ground; one to consider.

Four-time C&D winner, including twice in the month of May; got his head back in front at Wolverhampton (7f) in March; respectable return to turf when third of 11 at Bath (1m good) 17 days ago; can be expected to go well back at Chepstow.

Had been threatening for a while before winning for Taryn Langley over 7f here, back in the cheekpieces, off 4lb lower 11 days ago; there's little wiggle room off this mark but the extra furlong's fine round a course she likes, and she's a player.

Form & Verdict
Low-mileage 4yo who struggled in bumpers/hurdles during the last jumps season and showed nothing more than glimmers of promise in her three subsequent qualifying runs on the Flat (6f-7.3f); has better chance to get competitive in this low-grade handicap but it's probably wise to wait for some positive signals from the betting.

Not progressing over hurdles and often undermines her chances by failing to settle, but has bits of form that bring her into the reckoning, notably when fourth at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) in February; still something to find and stamina to prove over this longer trip.
