11st 9lb

J: Mr Tristan Durrell

T: Dan Skelton

Came good over hurdles at third attempt, at Wincanton (1m7f, soft) in February; just a respectable sixth on last month's handicap debut at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) but could quite plausibly have untapped potential over today's longer trip.

Form & Verdict

Won a division of this race last year (good to soft) and doubled her hurdling tally at Huntingdon (3m1f, soft) last month; probably still on a workable mark but her Wetherby fourth three weeks ago was a rather laboured effort, and drying ground may not be ideal for her.
