Fourth of six on good ground at Newbury last July was her best form at the time but all her other turf starts have been on softer and it was soft or heavy when she won handicaps on three of her last four outings last year; won smoothly on penultimate start (sole run at 1m6f) and looked better than the bare result on final outing (travelled strongly, runner-up had first run on her), so makes plenty of appeal if the ground is suitable.

Progressive in handicaps, including wins in two of her last three; latest was over 1m6f at Nottingham (soft) where she travelled sweetly and was firmly in charge throughout the final 2f, so the 8lb rise looks merited; one for the shortlist.

Improved form on handicap debut when scoring at Kempton (1m4f, AW) last August and she took another step forward when second at Nottingham (1m6f, soft) in final run last season; returns from 183 days off but she's still lightly raced and looks interesting for in-form yard.

Won twice last season (2m/2m1f, soft/good) and looked a mare to follow when landing a 4yo handicap at Cheltenham last April; not written off but she needs to perform better than she's managed on her two hurdle starts this season (2m/2m4f, good to soft).

A bit better could have been expected in a Listed mares' hurdle at Wetherby (2m, good to soft) last time but she looked promising when posting two wins earlier this year (2m, good/soft), including here, and she stays well on the Flat so could appreciate this step up in trip; retains potential.

Hadn't been in the best of form but typical of one from this yard to rediscover some spark from nowhere and force a dead-heat at Newcastle (2m); 2lb lower on this return to grass but she's 0-10 on turf.

Talented two-time Flat winner (1m/1m2f; peak RPR 87; versatile ground-wise) who was runner-up last month on her first two hurdle starts (2m, good/good to soft); could settle better today in a first-time hood and she has obvious potential off her opening hurdle mark given her Flat ability.
