2-4 since her wind op in the spring, the latter win gained on stable debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in July; well beaten after racing too freely there a few days later but has had a longer break this time and the hood is refitted; leading contender if back on song.

Three-time Flat winner (1m-1m2f; good or quicker) who returns to hurdles after two fair Flat efforts following wind surgery; took a step forward when a promising fourth on handicap hurdle debut at Plumpton (2m, good to soft) in March and remains capable of better in this sphere; leading contender off a 2lb lower mark.
