Ran quite well when fourth of seven at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) in February, her second start for Max Comley, but looked out of sorts at Hereford last month and is now 0-7 over hurdles.

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.

Form & Verdict
Second in a Newton Abbot bumper (2m1f, good) in April; best effort came on her latest hurdles start at the same venue (2m5f, good to soft); pedigree suggests that rather than this trip may prove more suitable but she is heading in the right direction.

0-10 but she ran well when second here (2m3f, good) in March and rallied for a respectable fifth at Taunton (good) three weeks ago on her first crack at 3m; shaped last time as though today's extra yardage could be in her favour and she might be in the mix.

A modest 1m4f Flat scorer for Tom Ward; failed to match that form sent hurdling for her current yard in 2025 but not discredited back on the Flat with fourth in 1m6f Southwell handicap 50 days ago; yard is going well so she could still do better on her hurdling handicap debut now.

Runner-up in an Irish point and she shaped encouragingly on her hurdling debut when fourth in 2m Worcester novice in October; has failed to kick on since, beating only one in 2m Wincanton maiden the following month, and she needs a subsequent breathing operation to spark improvement in handicaps.

Well beaten in a bumper and then pulled up on hurdles debut; better effort when second in a five-runner mares' maiden hurdle (2m5f, good to firm) at Exeter latest; should be capable of building on that but is another for whom the drop in trip doesn't look ideal.
