Fairly treated on hurdle form and seems to need good ground, on which she was well beaten on chase debut two months ago; could be wiser for that experience but she was a remote last.

Got off the mark over hurdles at Worcester (2m4f) in August and not discredited after three months off when a fading fourth of nine in 2m6f handicap here 19 days ago; much respected on her chase debut.

Form & Verdict
Three-time chase winner (2m4f-3m1f) on good ground for Dan Skelton in spring 2025; has since lost her way but the signs were more encouraging here last time (2m7f), for all that she was no match for the winner; might be the answer.

Three-time chase winner (2m4f-3m1f) on good ground for Dan Skelton in spring 2025; generally very disappointing for current stable since the autumn, including when back on a sound surface for last two starts, but has become too well handicapped to rule out.

2m4f maiden point winner for James Owen three years ago, but recent efforts have reaffirmed that staying that and longer trips is otherwise often beyond her; 3lb drop is not persuasive; tongue tie retained.

Form & Verdict
Her fourth of five in a Downpatrick maiden hurdle last May is her standout piece of form, since when she's been tailed off and pulled up (sharply) in good-ground handicaps; goes chasing with much to prove.

Much improved when fourth in C&D maiden last time; needs a bit more on handicap bow but gets plenty of weight as a 4yo and has a chance.
