Virgin Bet Mares' Handicap Hurdle

Has landed 5 wins since joining this yard, the latest a 23f Bangor handicap off a 1 lb lower mark last summer. However, she has come up short since and looks vulnerable.

Listed bumper winner and made a successful debut over hurdles in workmanlike fashion back there in May. Runner-up later that month but failed to progress when down the field in handicap at Exeter 3 months ago. Others make more appeal.

Runner-up only start in Irish points and off the mark at second attempt under Rules (hurdling debut). Disappointing at Wetherby next time but remains with potential after a breathing operation.

Pair of novice wins at up to 3m early last year and has mde the frame in handicaps on her last 3 starts, a respectable third over C&D a month ago. Not discounted.

Produced a career best to narrowly score at Ffos Las in April and backed that up when 5 lengths second over 21f at Warwick. Disappointing both subsequent starts, though, including after 5 months off at Exeter in November.

Scored at Huntindon in March. Best effort in handicaps this term when third there in December and shaped as if still in form next time. One to consider.
