Progressive mare with only six starts to her name over fences; travelling well when unseating two out in Punchestown's 3m4f trial for this and she went on to repel Stumptown in the Kim Muir at Cheltenham (3m2f, soft); Festival form has a habit of appearing on the winning CV and there's a lot in her favour; a must for the shortlist.
