Form & Verdict
A fair 2m winner on the Flat in 2025; not at that level in four runs in this sphere, including on her handicap debut when a never-dangerous sixth of 13 at Catterick (2m) in January; she could still do better though after a break granted this stiffer test of stamina.

From out of the handicap she's 12lb higher than when winning at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) 12 days ago in her second handicap hurdle; however, she did it comfortably and may well have more to offer in this code, especially now up in trip (won at up to 2m on the Flat); versatile ground-wise.

Made hurdle debut in November and soundly beaten on her three runs in this code, but she now goes handicapping off a lowly mark and she was progressive on the Flat last year (albeit at modest level); this 5yo will be all the more interesting if attracting market support.

Points scorer who also shaped well when a debut fourth in an Aintree bumper last May; hasn't translated that form to this sphere however, a remote fifth in 2m5f Sedgefield handicap in November; plenty more is needed after a four-month layoff.

Safely held in first two handicaps (3m/2m5f, good) but returned from break with keeping on second here (2m1f, soft) last month and, on that evidence, this move back up in trip looks the right move.

Just one win from her 19 hurdle starts but that came at Catterick (1m7f, soft) in February and she made a bad mistake when fourth at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) next time; she'll be fine now back up in trip and back on better ground, and could give a good account.

Fair form shown when fourth in a pair of bumpers but she's failed to build on it sent hurdling, coming in a well-held fourth of six in 2m4f Musselburgh maiden three weeks ago; she needs this switch to handicaps to spark improvement.
