Form & Verdict
Off the mark at the sixth attempt over hurdles when scoring by 9l in a Hereford novice (2m3f, good) two weeks ago; that was at 1-2 in a five-runner race but her main market rival was a clear second and she hit a personal best with that win; big player again under a penalty.

Defied a double penalty when completing her hat-trick over hurdles at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) 18 days ago; connections wasting little time in switching to fences for handicap debut and she looks to have been crying out for this longer trip; on a workable mark and could improve again.

Followed up her Hereford win over C&D 16 days ago, though had to work hard to do so; shoulders a double penalty and she probably has greater potential over further, but she's still the one to beat.
