Teenager who stays very well and recorded his sixth chase win when scoring at Warwick (3m, good) in May; somewhat unreliable now but current mark if workable if he's on a going day.

Form & Verdict

Unexposed 6yo who caused 50-1 shock when fitted with blinkers for handicap hurdle debut here (2m4f, good to soft) last month; needs to bounce back from a duff effort 16 days ago but connections are evidently keen to switch her to fences and move up to 3m; visor tried today.
