Justified market support when winning at Kelso (2m5f, good to soft; from 4lb lower) in November; didn't see it out as well as the principals at Ayr (3m; fourth of ten) next time, before pulling up on heavy ground at Leicester latest; probable player if returning to peak form.

2-5 for new stable this year; gained the wins on heavy and good to soft ground but coped perfectly well with good ground when close third at Kelso (2m5f; first-time tongue-tie) last month; hood (worn for three of her last four races) is discarded; likely contender again.

Disappointing towards the end of last year but she's 1lb lower than when 1l second over C&D (good) last May and perhaps the first-time cheekpieces will give her a boost; no surprise if she goes well for in-form yard.

Not beaten that far when sixth of eight on last month's handicap debut at Kelso (2m5f, good) but raced too freely (not for the first time) and was well beaten when upped to 3m at Perth three weeks later; drops back to 2m here; others look safer.

Good-ground novice hurdle winner who was runner-up in first-time blinkers in Huntingdon handicap (3m1f, good to soft) in November for Noel Williams; however, below par next time and has since changed hands; this inconsistent 7yo goes without headgear on stable debut; others are more compelling.

Back in the groove since joining the doubly represented Susan Corbett, winning back-to-back at Perth (3m/3m2f); raised a further 7lb since latest win, but that is effectively offset by the returning Rebekah Duffy; worthy of serious consideration in hat-trick mission.
