Bumper winner who outran her 125-1 odds when fourth of six in Group 3 at York (1m6f, good to firm) in July on her second Flat start; another very respectable run when fifth of seven at 100-1 in the Group 2 Doncaster Cup (2m2f, good) recently; drops back in grade here and she might not be far away.

J: Jason Hart

T: Jennie Candlish

Bumper winner who was likely flattered in 1m6f Group 3 at York (staying-on fourth of six) on penultimate start; comprehensively turned over at 4-9 in a three-runner Carlisle novice (1m3f) on latest, failing by a long way to back up the York form; that suggests bleak prospects in this, surely.

Form & Verdict
Dam very useful 2m1f/2m3f Irish hurdle winner, closely related to smart jumper Stolen Silver; second-favourite at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) last month and she ran well to finish a clear second behind a 1-8 shot; that was a promising start and she should improve for that experience; key player.

Three hurdle wins (Hereford and twice at Newton Abbot); she's still finding her way over fences, having unseated on Stratford debut and made a respiratory noise at Newton Abbot; improved fourth (beaten over 12l) at Uttoxeter a fortnight ago, however; it's likely she'll sit handy dropped back to 2m.

Well backed into 3-1 on Worcester debut (2m, good) last month and she came from the rear to finish a 3l third of ten; that form puts her firmly in the picture and yard has 29% record in Hexham bumpers in recent years; interesting contender.
