Bumper winner who had her limitations exposed at top tracks last season but well prepared to make a successful hurdles debut at Wetherby on Boxing Day. Not in same form under a penalty at Sedgefield but she was found to have nasal discharge post-race, so worth another chance.
|
Just poor form in a trio of bumpers.
|
Just modest form at best in 2 bumpers but shaped better than the distance beaten suggests sent hurdling when fourth at Lingfield (2m) last month, having been forced to swerve sharply right to stay on the track after being badly hampered at the first. Entitled to do better.
|
Well held in a pair of bumpers but did show a bit more than on her hurdling debut when third in a 6-runner maiden at Fontwell (17.7f) 15 days ago.
|
Showed a bit in a Hexham bumper and did the same when third on hurdling debut at Lingfield, but off the bridle a long way out and well held at Huntingdon last week.
|
Runner-up in a Fakenham bumper on final start for Don Cantillon. Disappointing in a couple of runs for new yard (off 10 weeks in between) but she does have a pedigree that suggests she could fare better now hurdling.
|
Offered little in trio of bumpers and fared no better sent hurdling in a first-time hood at Lingfield last month.
|
Has offered little in a bumper/maiden hurdle 4 months apart.
|
Looks one for low-grade handicaps after this run.

Forecasts
Nell's Bells (5/4), Oakley Dancer (9/2), Miss Get The Veuve (7/1), Pure Theatre (15/2), Internet Biddy (15/2), Harthill (10/1), Tuscan Rose (18/1), Somerway (50/1), Sally's Girl (80/1)
NELL'S BELLS was a touch underwhelming at Sedgefield last time, but she was found to have nasal discharge post-race, so is much better judged on her Wetherby form as a result and can be given another chance. Internet Biddy is an interesting rival having shaped better than the distance beaten suggests on her hurdling debut at Lingfield, while Pure Theatre's pedigree suggests she's not one to give up on now switching to this discipline.
