Landed a 2m Newbury handicap last December. May have needed the run when below form on Hereford reappearance 3 weeks ago but she'll need to leave that a fair way behind to go close now.

MISTY WHISKY's bumper ability provides her with the potential for better still and she's taken to strike on her return from wind surgery (also tongue tied first time). Peace Prevails has taken well to hurdling this autumn and she can provide the chief threat ahead of Lucy Wadham's Northern Princess.
