Yet to really progress from her hurdling debut victory in November 2020, though ran a fair race on sole chase start when last seen. Makes handicap hurdle debut in modest contest and should go close.

Long-standing maiden over hurdles. Looked in need of run on return from absence at Ffos Las last time and isn't fully discounted from a mark that is gradually edging down.

Impressed when scoring at Uttoxeter in December and ran well again when second at Wincanton in March. Ran poorly last time but merits respect on the balance of her best form.

Modest maiden on Flat and remains with only one significant effort over hurdles, when second at Taunton on debut. No better for wind-op when behind at Chepstow last time and is hard to fancy again.

Improved when getting off mark at Wetherby in February and caught eye when finishing strongly at Chepstow (16f) last time. Step back up in trip is a plus and she's the one to beat.

Twice placed in juvenile maidens last season but didn't make any impact on handicap debut (20f) last time and others are easier to fancy.

Little impact over hurdles, including on handicap debut last time, and looks impossible to make a case for.

Won a bumper here on debut in 2020 but has shown nothing positive since and is tough to warm to on handicap debut.

Forecasts

Camembert Electric (13/8), Poet's Reflection (3/1), Little Jessture (9/1), Subway Surf (9/1), Shore Shanty (9/1), Branson Missouri (10/1), Tiki Fire (10/1), Ivy Avenue (25/1), Nostalgica (33/1)

Verdict

CAMEMBERT ELECTRIC has been in fine heart since sent handicapping, and with the step back up in trip in her favour, she rates a solid selection in this mares' event. We may not have seen the best Shore Shanty yet and she's most feared ahead of Poet's Reflection.
