Form & Verdict
Just 1-16 over hurdles when trained by Evan Williams and was unable to justify odds-on favouritism when only sixth of 12 here (2m5f, good) on last month's stable debut; may yet come good for Harry Derham, though, and this move back up in trip will suit; wears refitted tongue-tie; gained her win on good to firm but has form on good to soft; 3lb wrong.

3m hurdle winner last April in first-time cheekpieces, that her only win in 16 attempts, though often placed; given wind surgery after finishing a distant third at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft) in October on final start for Evan Williams; back in trip following a break and worth considering for stable going well.

Seemingly aided by cheekpieces when making the frame at Warwick twice this season (3m1f/3m2f, good) but his finishing was disappointing in those races and he's patently not as good as he was; others preferred.

Only 1-24 and that win was nearly two years ago; he was in no form earlier this year and plenty depends on whether cheekpieces can trigger something; he's dropped to a good mark.

Showed glimpses of ability in maiden/novice company over hurdles (2m-2m6f; good/good to soft), but proved disappointing when switched to handicaps last time at Ludlow (2m5f); may do better in time but she doesn't appear to be particularly well treated despite being 4lb lower here.

Record of 1-7 in points and he's 0-11 under rules; still unexposed over regulations fences but he struggled back in this sphere in two runs at Worcester (2m7f, good) in the autumn; has lots to prove after four months off and he's well into the veteran stage.
