Sky Sports Racing Mares' Handicap Hurdle

Racked up her fifth handicap win in under 9 months at Aintree (extended 2m) in June 2021. Found things tough to end 2021 but the assessor has given her a major chance and she's capable fresh.

Likeable mare who is pretty prolific in Jersey, completing hat-trick at Les Landes in June. Performed with credit on the level at that venue later in the summer and she should be a factor from this mark back hurdling.

Pair of Bangor wins since joining Donald McCain, latterly in August. Nothing wrong with a brace of runner-up efforts since and likely to be in the shake-up again.

Multiple winner in Ireland and scored for this yard at Sedgefield in April. Was shaping up quite well when last seen in the spring and now 1 lb below that successful mark, but this veteran may just need this.

Uttoxeter maiden winner last summer. Bought cheaply out of Nicky Henderson's stable and while he didn't fire for Joe Ponting, the switch to Ryan Potter has been more fruitful, successful at Southwell (3m) a fortnight ago. Big player if coping with drop in trip.

Market Rasen novice winner last July and though much more miss than hit since, she did show more fitted with blinkers on the back of a wind op when fifth at Plumpton 3 weeks ago. Task is to now build on that.

Gained her breakthrough win in mares' handicap (21f) in May and returned to a similar level in first-time blinkers when second at Stratford (18.7f) last month. Jumping remains a concern with her though, falling early 3 weeks ago. Cheekpieces now on.
