Improved for good ground when winning twice (2m3f/2m5f) in the spring but ran well below expectations when favourite at Uttoxeter in May, when she was reported to have run flat; now 21lb higher than for the first of those wins but has been given a good break and could resume her progress.

Has improved for good ground in winning her last two races (2m3f/2m5f), both with plenty in hand; raised 10lb for last time but she's only raced 13 times and is clearly on the upgrade.

T: Faye Bramley

Hurdles or fences, it's fair to say she failed to fulfill her potential for Willie Mullins, with her fourth in the Mares' Novices Hurdle (2m1f) at the 2025 Cheltenham Festival a highlight; well beaten on her last two starts over fences, so it's back to basics (hurdles) now with Faye Bramley.

J: John Shinnick

One of three for trainer; beaten favourite in all four beginners' chase starts, the latest of which when 33l behind at Wexford after some jumps lacking in fluency; hard to trust and probably wants softer, but she's dangerous if putting it all together.

Last five wins have all been gained over 2m4f, but three defeats since May's latest Uttoxeter success (her fifth there) have taken her score to 0-4 racing off marks in the 120s; rivalry for early lead.

6-16 over hurdles, her latest success being at Uttoxeter in May (2m4f, good); one of her best runs was when 2l second to Fiveonefive in this race last year, but she is now 6lb worse off with the winner.

J: Charlie Maggs

T: Donald McCain

Won at about 2m3f at Haydock (good to soft) and Bangor (good) and the combination of a deep race and the drop back to 2m found him out at Aintree; better expected here off what should still be a realistic mark.

T: Donald McCain

On a hat-trick after 2m3f wins at Haydock (good to soft) and Bangor (good) under Charlie Maggs last month but the fact he failed to win at around 2m on his first ten starts in Britain hardly boosts confidence in him for this drop back in trip.

2-6 over hurdles, the latter win gained here (2m4f, good) in May; not seen since respectable Flat run the following month and not sure to benefit from this drop back in trip, but may still have some potential over jumps.
