Has won two of her last three races (pulled up on soft ground in between), the latest over C&D eight days ago (good) when a few of today's rivals were behind her; up 6lb; should go well again.

J: Charlie Maggs

T: Rebecca Menzies

Benefited from the drop back to 2m and first-time cheekpieces when scoring over C&D in April but never travelled with the same zest when returned here the following month; soft ground a possible excuse that day and she is not without claims if rediscovering that earlier form.

Snapaudaciaheros

J: Charlie Maggs

T: Rebecca Menzies

Seemed to benefit from combination of drop back in trip and first-time cheekpieces when finishing well to snatch victory over C&D (good to soft) last month; her overall profile remains unconvincing but she's effectively only 1lb higher today and features prominently in calculations.

Form & Verdict
Won from the front at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft; front pair clear) in February and was third under much more patient ride at Ayr (2m, soft) last month; may not want the ground to dry out here but otherwise she's likely to be on the premises again.

Overall record of 0-12 but she's unexposed over fences and went clear some way out before fading into a 9l fourth here (2m5f, good) three weeks ago; continues to edge down the weights and she could make a bold bid on this drop back in trip; hood removed.

Maiden under rules (0-10), but she posted a series of consistent efforts over hurdles; tried to make all in an added hood over C&D (chase debut) latest, succumbing to the stronger finish of Passengerontheship; is 5lb better off with 7l too find; the task isn't impossible.

Capitalised on the two market leaders exiting the race three out in four-runner maiden hurdle at Sedgefield (2m1f, good to soft) on Boxing Day; she's unexposed and in good hands but finished down the field on last month's handicap debut at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft); improvement needed.
